What is "proofreading"?
Proofreading is the process of carefully reviewing a written text to identify and correct errors in spelling, grammar, punctuation, and formatting. Typically the final step before publication or submission, proofreading ensures that the text is free from mistakes, consistent in style and presentation, and meets required standards of accuracy and clarity. This final review helps polish the document, enhancing its overall readability and professionalism.
