| Proof reading | Editing |
| Proofreading is scanning the text for syntax, grammar and spelling errors. It focuses on correctness of text and general presentation. Compared to editing, it is less time consuming and requires the person to be objective, clear-headed and focused. Usually while proofreading, meaning and context of terminology is irrelevant whereas typographical errors, grammar, spelling and punctuations are the areas of focus. Using dictionary is enough in terms of reference material and practicing aids in attaining perfection. |
