  Geo offers a range of multilingual editorial services, including:
 
Proofreading  
Editing  
Copywriting  
 
Multilingual proofreading

Proofreading is the act of reading and checking texts and marking errors or potential improvements. A proof reader will typically check for correct punctuation, grammar and spelling and check that the translated text means the same as the original text. Geo can arrange proofreading of texts produced by others separately as part of a quality checking procedure (see also our section on back translation here )


Multilingual editing

Editing is a little more involved than proofreading. It can encompass elements of proofreading but is more commonly about rewriting the text - either to correct it or to make it conform to a certain style. Geo works with experienced editors and can work any text into the style you need. We can even help you rewrite your documents in Plain English click here for more details.


Multilingual copywriting

Copywriting differs in that there isn't normally a text to work from. The copywriter has to work from a brief (naturally it'll done by you with as little or as much input as you like from us) and come up with their own text for the product or service concerned. They use their creative skills and experience to produce a text that can be as persuasive, informative or descriptive as required.

Geo can also take existing text and get copywriters to rewrite it so that it suits the stylistic norms or conventions of the target culture better. This is more rewriting than copywriting, but the same creative experience is used.
