Using paperlessproofs

Paperlessproofs are unique – the entire proofing cycle is completely electronic, saving time and reducing costs, while maintaining accuracy
and improving legibility

  Proofs are sent out electronically and corrected onscreen

  No complicated software necessary. Proofs are corrected and marked up using the free Acrobat Reader

  Paperlessproofs is easy and intuitive to use – simply click to select a proof correction symbol and then click again to place it on the page. Text changes are typed in the margin, and files containing longer text corrections and replacement images can be attached as part of the paperlessproof

  Corrected proofs look exactly like conventional hand-corrected proofs with all corrections clearly visible and legible on
the page

  Paperlessproofs use the new British Standard
proof-correction marks


The paperlessproofs process

  » Publishers can create a paperlessproof from any PDF file

  » The paperlessproof is sent by e-mail to the author or proofreader

  »

The author/proofreader simply opens the file and start making corrections
[Users must download the paperlessproofs plug-in before opening their first paperlessproof.]


  » When corrections are complete, the corrected file is saved
and returned to the publisher

  » Authors and proofreaders do not pay to use paperlessproofs

  » Publishers are charged for the creation of paperlessproofs at a low per-page basis
