Proofreading/light editing by a "second set of eyes" is an essential step to producing a high quality technical document or publication. Authors are sometimes so familiar and focused on the subject matter, they make small (but significant) mistakes in consistency, continuity, and quality. Without an unbiased, human-eye review of the document, these errors will be present in the final document. With over 26 years experience writing, proofreading, and editing thousands of technical documents, IC Microanalysis is uniquely qualified to assist you with your English language editing needs (visit our Editors Profile page).

We offer technical proofreading/light editing of various documents, including:

• Semiconductor-related patent applications and issued patents
• Technical publications and articles
• Product and failure analysis reports, and product datasheets
• White papers
• Technical operation manuals or presentations
• Assembly instructions or manuals
• Translated technical documents
• Brochures
• Newsletters
• Websites

Our technical proofreading checks for:

• Inconsistencies in technical data
• Spelling, grammar, and correct and consistent usage of technical terms
• Consistency and accuracy of internal document drawing, figure, table, and chart references
• Wording and sentence structure problems
• Obvious inconsistencies in technical data
• Awkwardly-worded sentences or phrases
• Consistency between the issued patent and filed application
• Obvious technical errors in drawings or annotation references
• Discrepancies between document copies

To maintain the highest level of security, all work is performed by IC Microanalysis staff or U.S.-based technical specialists.
