Smart-Edit Services.

Smart-Edit services are as follows. Please note that prior to any work being carried out, the per-page rate shall be agreed upon based on a scale of 3 complexity levels. These are: Basic, Medium and Complex.

Proofreading
Proofreading consists of reviewing any text, either hard copy on paper or electronic copy on a computer via email, and checking for typos, style and grammatical errors.
The usual rate for proofreading ranges from $5 per page for a basic document, $7.50 per page for a medium complexity document up to $10 per page for a complex document.

Copy Editing
Copy editing consists of making the copy (i) clear, (ii) correct, (iii) concise, (iv) comprehensible, and (v) consistent, that is: make it say what it means, and mean what it says. Copy editing involves correcting spelling, punctuation, grammar, mathematics, terminology/jargon, and semantics. In addition to the usual copy editing tasks, Smart-Edit can also copy edit for tone and factual accuracy.
The usual rate for copy editing ranges from $5 per page for a basic document, $7.50 per page for a medium complexity document, up to $10 per page for a complex document and, with factual editing, a price would need to be agreed upon depending on the subject of the document.

Translation
Smart-Edit can carry out Portuguese to English translations, and limited English to Portuguese translations. The rate for translation ranges from $15 per page for a basic document, $17.50 per page for a medium complexity document, up to $20 per page for a complex document.
