Editing happens first and tends to be a much more involved process than proofreading.
An editor takes a look at the big picture, helping you say what you’ve got to say in the most appropriate way for your target audience.
As well as correcting errors, inconsistencies and formatting, the editor makes changes to enhance the clarity and flow of the words, sentences and paragraphs.
A good editor makes sure that nothing important is missing, nothing superfluous remains, and always respects the author’s voice.
Dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s. Proofreading is the final check of the text before it goes for publication.
No major changes to content and structure are made at this stage.
It’s the last opportunity to pick up minor typos and inconsistencies that may have escaped the editor.

Cepsa S.A.Allison was a fundamental support to the Energy Outlook report. She went above and beyond simple text corrections, improved the document storytelling, making it more readable and understandable. Her ability to put herself in the reader’s shoes provided us with valuable feedback. But Allison’s remarkable commitment to the project is perhaps what we valued the most from a client’s point of view. Always available, very well organized, taking care of all the details, and when the moment required, Allison was ready to make the final push. We would definitely recommend Allison to any business looking for someone to boost the quality of their written outputs.
