Proofreading
Checking proofs is a tedious but critical task
and any mistakes overlooked can be costly to correct at the page proof
stage. Modern computer spellcheckers are useful but have their limitations.
They are based on US English and are unable to distinguish the correct
tense or even whether a word is correct (i.e. they would not pick up
the difference between 'here' and 'hear').
Supports-U
provide a full editing and proofreading service.
We can mark changes on hard copy or change documents electronically,
indicating any alterations, additions or deletions. We will also check
and correct grammar, spelling mistakes and general typing errors. Editing
will also take into account awkward phrasing, repetitions, and structural
problems. Please note that we will not make any extensive changes unless
we have your approval beforehand.

Copy
Editing
Depending
upon the degree of editing required we can offer any, or all, of the
following: correction of spelling, punctuation, grammar, and general
English usage without changing the original meaning; check for overall
clarity, tone and structure; reorganise text or change paragraph order
to improve overall clarity and sense; rewrite to improve the flow of
text and content if required; highlight any format, layout, heading
or content inconsistencies; check typographical details and ensure consistency
with widows, orphans, ladders, ligatures and kerning; reduce word count
to comply with a specified length.
Please note - we reserve the right to limit the editorial service provided
for dissertations, theses and manuscripts to 'straightforward' proofreading
if the document contains technical terms or subject matter with which
we could not be expected to be automatically familiar.

Transcription
Services
We
are equipped to handle all manner of audio dictation and specialise
in inventories, letters, reports, meetings, seminars,
conferences and interviews. We can transcribe a variety
of audio media, as well as DSS and
WAV digital sound files. We
can edit the literal transcription into taut, easily understood
text where the speaker's meaning is clear.
We
invariably speak much faster than we write or type. It
is generally accepted that we can speak four times faster than
we can type however, it is a commonly held misconception that
it takes one hour to transcribe one hour of recorded tape. This
is incorrect. The industry standard allows ONE hour to
transcribe 15 minutes of clearly recorded speech.
Once
transcribed, your work can be emailed, faxed or posted.
