How it works: For our basic proofreading service, we make edits directly in your document using the track changes feature. You will be able to see all changes and approve or disregard them individually.

To get started, send us your document in .doc, .docx, or .odt format.

Turnaround time: The average turnaround time for most projects is 5-10 business days. Longer projects will take more time, but we will always give you an estimated completion date when we schedule your project.

Important: Although we at Penoaks are committed to making sure you are satisfied with our work, we cannot guarantee that proofreading or editing services will catch every error. At this time, Penoaks is only able to offer editing for books in standard American English.
