Our Substantive editing process looks at the bigger picture
Content and structure
We look for any omissions, redundancies or inconsistencies in the content. We make sure appropriate headings are chosen. We help you decide which information should be included in the main text and which in the supporting materials.
Information blocks
The length of each paragraph or section, the number of headings and subheadings highly depends on the readership, the material and the means of access. We will check to make sure your structure is optimal.
Figures and tables 
We make sure that your figures support the text, with self-explanatory labels and captions that match. We double check that your text comments on the data in graphs or tables, and doesn't just repeat it.
Wording 
We ensure that your language is at the right level for the intended audience, and that all terms and abbreviations are explained. We format your tone, style and vocabulary appropriately and ensure your content sounds authoritative.
Consistency
Our editors keep a list of decisions on abbreviations, alternative spellings, hyphenation, italics, capitals, units of measurement, and much else. We ensure your text does not contradict itself, nor any illustrations, tables, graphs and captions. Internal links and cross-references will be checked as well.
Accuracy and anomalies 
Writers are responsible for what they write, but we often spot errors of fact, misspelt names, misused words, numbers that don’t add up and incomplete references. Our editors will query anything that does not seem to make sense.
Length 
We make sure that your piece is just right, not too long or too short. Our editors can suggest materials to be added as well as ways to make your writing more succinct.
