Wordfirm continues to offer copyediting and proofreading of short documents—the work we began with in 1996 as Editorial Services Online—to marketing firms, nonprofit associations, government agencies, and others. Our editors can often turn around this work overnight.

Typically our clients send us Word documents or PDFs by the end of their workday. In the evening, after 8 p.m. ET, our project manager assigns work to highly skilled editors across the United States and in other parts of the world.

In the morning, the project manager reviews work returned overnight and then forwards it on to clients. Usually, copyediting of fewer than 2,000 words and proofreading of fewer than 4,000 words can be returned the next morning.

Marketing firms, for example, e-mail us PDFs of ads, flyers, brochures, and newsletters. Our editors use Adobe Acrobat and a mouse pen to mark up the PDFs directly. Our clients then print out the PDFs and follow the editor's marks, modifying the original layout file.
