After we have designed and typeset your book, we will review the cover and interior pages to make sure that everything is correct.

Proofreading may include rereading the whole manuscript or just scanning it for a final quality check.

If you just want a final scan, this proofreading service may include any or all of the following tasks:

• We will verify that all data are included.

• Consistent formatting of headings and text will be checked.

• Widows and orphans (words or short lines at the beginning or end of a paragraph, which are left dangling at the top or bottom of a column, separated from the rest of the paragraph) will be fixed.

• Remaining typos and punctuation errors will be corrected.

• Placement of figures and tables in relation to text will be analyzed.

• Page numbers in contents and indexes will be checked and fixed.

• Cross-reference page numbers and their format will be checked and updated, if necessary.

If you want us to reread the manuscript during this proofreading process, we would be happy to provide an estimate or a fixed bid to do so.

The next step

This process will continue until you are ready to move to the next step ... project management.
