Business Overview

Do you need proofreading services? I Christopher Farrugia, Dip-MLS, PgD Forensic Science (UK), provide a wide range of proofreading services for all clients.

Revising involves the consideration of the overall structure and content of the written document. Revise as one goes, in the first revision, identify overall weaknesses then, in subsequent revisions, narrow down to the more mechanical aspects such as style, structure and referencing, and use revision as a learning experience to identify aspects of the writing that need to be improved and keep previous drafts that may be changed later and want to retrieve.

Editing is the polishing and refining of words, sentences and paragraphs, editing as needed, editing is used to identify aspects of writing that need to be improved, when finishing writing the draft, put it aside for a day before it is revised so that one is better able to identify weaknesses. Proofreading is the final Read Morecheck for errors that detract from the professionalism of the work done, such as typographical errors, irregular spacing and omissions.

Proofreading involves one day after finishing the draft, proofreading from a printed, double-spaced document, not from the screen, using a ruler to check line by line, reading the document aloud, bearing in mind that spelling checkers do not identify all mistakes and proofread as many times as possible.

As my background is in the scientific and medical disciplines my main thrust is in providing specialist translation and proofreading services in the scientific, medical, technical, veterinary, foodstuffs, and cosmetics fields eg. Summary of Product Characteristics. MSDS and so on. I also use CAT software tools to eliminate any inconsistencies in my text and ensure that all the text is translated. Linguistic screening and checking are also carried out.

Contact me and I offer a good service to all of our clients.
