Editing Services
MDS can provide proofreading/editing services for almost any project, on
almost any subject matter. Here are some things we will be looking
for when proofreading your project:
-
Spelling
-
Although spell checkers can be a
useful tool, they don't catch everything, and relying on them
exclusively can be a big mistake. For example, if you type the word
"elude" when you meant to say "allude," your spell checker will not
alert you to the mistake simply because "elude" is a correctly
spelled word. In some cases it will pick up the incorrect
usage, but many times it will not.

help you understand the fallibility of spell checkers:
In
Spellchecker We Trust…right?
Spellcheckers are wonderful things,
but the truth is that if the document that you just received and/or

- Grammar &
Punctuation
- English Grammar
can be tricky and even confusing, but our highly-competent staff of
manuscript editors is familiar with the ins and outs of properly written modern
American English. You can be confident that your manuscript
will be examined closely for any errors and corrected accordingly.
-
- Vocabulary
- Although every
effort will be made to preserve your personal and unique writing
style, occasionally we may give suggestions on ways to sharpen and
improve your
vocabulary usage.
-
- Redundancies &
Overall Wordiness
- There was a time
when wordiness was considered a valuable and marketable
characteristic of published documents; however, in our
time-conscious society, we have come to favor simplicity. Our
professional team of proofreaders is skilled in condensing long
explanations and descriptions without changing the style and meaning
of the text.
-
- Other Important
Elements
- With MDS you can
be sure that your entire manuscript has been completely proofread,
even the very important elements which are frequently overlooked by
most writers such as the index, table of contents, page numbers,
spelling of names, et cetera.
