ContentXprtz offers a dedicated Research Paper Proofreading Service for scholars who want error-free, journal-ready manuscripts. We correct grammar, punctuation, usage, and academic style; improve clarity and flow; and align your document with target-journal conventions—while preserving your authorial voice and intellectual ownership. Explore the FAQs below for details on scope, style guides, turnaround, and ethical practices. For ordering and workflow, visit our service page.
What is included in the Research Paper Proofreading Service?
We perform a line-by-line language check for grammar, spelling, punctuation, capitalization, spacing, and minor word choice; fix inconsistencies in headings, numbers, units, tables, and figure callouts; and normalize tone and usage to a formal academic register suitable for peer-reviewed journals.
How is proofreading different from copyediting?
Proofreading is the final polish before submission, focused on surface-level errors and minor clarity fixes. Copyediting digs deeper into style and sentence-level refinement. If we see issues beyond proofreading scope, we’ll flag them and recommend our editing options before you submit.
Do you use tracked changes and editor comments?
Yes. You receive two files: a tracked-changes version showing every correction and a clean file ready for submission. Editor comments summarize recurrent issues (e.g., hyphenation, tense, or abbreviation consistency) so you can learn and apply them across future drafts.
Which style guides and journal formats do you follow?
We format citations, references, and stylistic elements to APA, MLA, Chicago, IEEE, Vancouver, or journal-specific instructions for authors. Share the journal link or style sheet and we’ll align headings, abstracts, keywords, reference lists, and figure/table notes accordingly.
Is the service suitable for non-native English authors?
Absolutely. Our editors specialize in refining research written by EAL/ESL authors. We preserve your meaning, remove language interference, and ensure a natural scholarly tone without altering your contribution or authorship.
Do you check references and in-text citations for consistency?
Yes. We standardize author names, years, titles, journal names, volume/issue, page/article numbers, and DOIs where available. We also fix mismatches between in-text citations and the reference list and flag unverifiable sources for your review.
Will you optimize titles, abstracts, and keywords for discoverability?
We suggest concise, field-appropriate title wording; refine abstracts for readability within journal word limits; and recommend precise keywords aligned with disciplinary indexing practices—without promotional language discouraged by journals.
What are the typical timelines and pricing?
Most research papers are returned within 2–3 business days; an express 24–48-hour option is available for short deadlines. Our standard proofreading fee is $60 for a typical research paper. For lengthy or complex manuscripts, request a custom quote on the Order page.
What files do you accept, and how is confidentiality handled?
We accept DOC/DOCX, LaTeX (with .tex and .bib), and PDF (markup). Your files are handled under strict confidentiality; you retain full authorship and intellectual ownership. We follow recognized publication-ethics norms and never claim co-authorship.
Can proofreading guarantee acceptance?
No service can promise acceptance. Proofreading maximizes clarity, correctness, and compliance with journal style so reviewers focus on your research—not language errors. For deeper revisions, combine proofreading with our editing and publication support.
