Our robust pre-editing tools make the life of copyeditors easy by cleaning the file and structuring/tagging all the standard elements, including, but not limited to, linking citations, references, equations, figures and tables. XML and DTD are imposed on the files after the selection of the standard elements. All types of validations are also performed by our tools. This not only allows editors to focus on editing and reviewing but also renders the composition processes much more accurate, quick and efficient, leaving all the mechanical aspects of styling and structuring to be taken care of by the tool. For those authors who are happy to retain the content as they are and do not prefer a copyeditor making changes to their content, our pre-editing tools can help structure and style the manuscripts as per the style recommended by the publisher.
