Editorial & Content

Editing & Proofreading

Careful developmental, copy and final-stage review for confident publication.

Service overview

Built around the content, reader and final format.

Editing helps a manuscript communicate its ideas with greater structure, clarity and consistency. Proofreading provides the final focused check once content and pages are nearly complete.

BlueInk defines the appropriate level of review at the start, so authors and publishers understand what will be changed, queried and checked at each stage.
