What is an Editor?
Editors improve written communication by making the document clear, appropriate for the readership, logical and well-organised. Dawtek's editing services will assist your organisation in producing quality documentation, whether it's for print or the web, by:
- getting the words right
- targeting your publication to the intended audience
- structuring your information in the most effective way
- checking facts and references
- correcting spelling, grammar and syntax
- preparing a document for printing and liaising with the designer for layout.
How can we help?
Dawtek's editing services cover:
Copy editing / Language editing
We review the document looking at accuracy, grammar, spelling and punctuation. We check that the meaning and expression is clear and that terminology is consistent. We ensure the writing is precise, succinct, and in plain English.
Structural editing
Sometimes a structural review of the whole document is required. We will tailor the content, language, presentation and style so that the intended reader will find it attractive because it is clear, interesting, memorable, logical and most importantly, easy to understand.
Proofreading
All documents for publication should be proofread at least once (and preferably more than once) to ensure all amendments have been made, and there are no spelling or typographical errors which will diminish your message. Prior to printing, the proofread stage will ensure there are no costly mistakes or errors in layout and the document is print-ready.
We can give a letter or report a final check once you've written it; we can re-design your website; or we can overhaul your complete suite of business procedures. CONTACT US today to discuss your requirements.
