The Difference Between Proofreading And Editing
2
When hiring an editor or proofreader, it is
necessary for you to be sure of the services you
require to be able to choose the appropriate
professional for the job. Both proofreading and
editing by Polished Paper have been used
interchangeably, and a lot of people do not know
the difference between them. Knowing the
difference between proofreading and editing is
paramount to getting your article polished
perfectly before submission.

Proofreading simply refers to the process of
checking and correcting errors in grammar,
spelling, syntax, and punctuation. Proofreading
does not require much change to the text and
mostly comes at the final stage before submitting
a document. Proofreading is most effective after
the process of editing has already been
completed. Proofreading is of great importance
because a grammar or punctuation error can give
the end user a bad impression of the article,
which may lower its value.

• Editing covers revisions and suggestions that can
  enhance the content, flow, and quality of the
  final document. Well-educated expert editors read
  your document carefully, pose questions, and
  offer comments and suggestions to help you bring
  your document to a higher level. Editing covers
  some of the following areas
• Providing comments and suggestions
• Posing questions
• Line editing

Having your work both edited and proofread
enables it to be reviewed for both the quality of
the content and grammar errors, which gives it
the upper hand in terms of being selected for
publishing. You have to incorporate editing with
proofreading to get the best results.
Proofreading should come after editing to avoid
mistakes because you may need to revise your work
after editing. Whether or not thats the case,
there might be some additional errors after
editing.
