I am able to proofread material provided as hard copy, a PDF or a Microsoft Word file. Amendments to hard copy proofs are marked with the BSI symbols in accordance with the client’s house style and brief. I use the comment tools in Adobe Reader to mark up PDF proofs, and Word files are edited using the track changes feature.
Most of my work involves proofreading academic and trade non-fiction books and journal articles for publishing clients, but I can also help businesses and other organisations who have technical documents, reports, marketing brochures, instruction manuals or packaging copy that needs to be checked. I will review your text diligently to ensure that errors and inconsistencies are minimised and your message is being delivered in a clear and concise manner, leaving you with an accurate and professional final product.
My main specialism is chemical engineering, which I studied at degree level, and related fields such as materials science, physics and maths, and I am confident proofreading text that deals with any of these subjects. Other subjects I have good knowledge of include football, rock and indie music, hiking, angling, nature, and film, but I will consider working on material concerning any topic.
Whether a job is large or small, I will complete it by the agreed deadline and to the client’s specification.
