Although the methods of proofing and editing may vary, the information below may be applied to Web Sites as well. Editorial proofing corrects punctuation only if the change prevents confusion. Publishers often request editorial proofreading when previously published material is to be reprinted or when they are concerned about possible input errors in material that has been heavily edited or drastically formatted. Customers seeking copyediting services should indicate whether or not they desire cleanup editing. A light copyedit does not involve changes such as smoothing transitions or changing heads or text to ensure parallel structure.
Editors check content only to detect spots where copy is missing.
