Proofreading

This involves the correction of basic errors within a text relating to punctuation, grammar, spelling, format, and syntax. In addition, ensuring consistency throughout within all these areas.

Editing

This involves all of the elements of proofreading. In addition, editing involves a closer look at the text to involve the quality, clarity and readability of the writing. It seeks to improve sentence construction, tone, terminology, and vocabulary, and ensure there is no repetition of both ideas and words throughout.
