Affix proofreading for US English. We have a one-hour minimum for all hourly-rate jobs. We adhere to the industry standard definition of one page, which is 250 words (about 1,600 characters). Depending on the complexity or simplicity of your document’s content, Affix proofreads final draft, edited documents at a rate of four to ten pages per hour. Microsoft Track Changes, Google Docs, Adobe Acrobat, and InDesign CC annotation software are available. We prefer MS Track changes, but it's our client’s choice. All Affix proofreading is done in non-formatted, double-spaced text files and will be returned to you this way. We can open just about any type of incoming files, but if we have an issues with your file we will contact you immediately.
