Editing by academics, for academics

       Working Method

Step 1. Please send your manuscript and contact details to info@clarkscientificediting.com requesting a no-obligation quotation for the cost of the editing service. Please state whether you would like your manuscript to be edited to conform to British or American English. Manuscripts should be submitted in Microsoft Word file format. Images can be submitted embedded in the document, as pdf documents, or as separate image files (jpg, bmp, gif, png, psd, tif).

Step 2. Clark Scientific Editing will send you a quotation for the work (valid for 28 days) and an estimated completion time which will begin after acceptance of the quotation. If you are a new client, you will also be sent - free of charge - a version of your manuscript which has had the Abstract edited. This will show you an example of the editing process offered by Clark Scientific Editing.

Step 3. Please inform Clark Scientific Editing whether or not you accept the quotation. Upon acceptance, work will begin on your manuscript.

Step 4. When the editing process is completed, two versions of your corrected manuscript will be returned to you. In one version, the changes which have been made will be visible. In the other version, the changes will have been accepted and only the edited text will be visible, allowing you to read the corrected manuscript without the distraction of the editing marks. You must carefully check this version to ensure that your meaning has been retained in the corrected manuscript.

Step 5. If you have any questions regarding the work, please consult with Clark Scientific Editing.

Step 6. Only when you are completely satisfied with the work is an invoice raised. Please pay the quoted fee within 28 days.
