Service
Editing
Stylistic and structural refinement for your English or German texts – clear expression, a consistent tone, convincing impact.
Scope
More than proofreading
In addition to checking spelling, grammar, punctuation, sentence structure and completeness of sentences, editing also includes:
- Stylistic corrections and improvements – word choice, repetition, consistency, adaptation to the target audience
- Content-related corrections
- Improved coherence
You only need a core review without the stylistic refinement? Then Proofreading is the right choice.
Deliverables
What you receive from me
A document with errors and corrections highlighted through coloured markup and comments.
A document in which all changes have already been applied.
I offer this service for both English and German texts.
Pricing
How prices are calculated
The price is based on standard lines, calculated from the character count of the editable text to be worked on (1 standard line = 55 characters including spaces).
