Q: How are fees determined?
A: A quote is provided based upon an initial review to determine the
level of service required. The quote is then calculated from a word
count based upon the following rates:
- $0.065/word for basic proofreading + $20.00 processing fee.
- $0.085/word for substantive editing + $20.00 processing fee.
This level of service is required when a significant percentage of
sentences and/or paragraphs must be re-written to improve
readability.
- $0.10/word for extensive editing + $20.00 processing fee. This
level of service is necessary when the narrative is difficult to
understand and significant time is required to making notations
and ask questions about the subject matter.

Frequently Asked Questions
All amounts are quoted in Canadian dollars (CAD).
Most manuscripts are edited at the $0.085/Word rate.
A word processor-based word count is performed for the calculation of the quote. References and data
tables are excluded from the word count.
When a quote is provided, you can be assured that the final fee will not exceed the quote. However, if the
time required for editing is substantially less than expected, you may expect a substantial reduction in the
fee.
Q: In what form will the edits be provided?
A: The edited version will be provided electronically via email in the "Bubble" format using the "Tracked
Changes" feature of Microsoft Word.
The "bubble" edit format has been chosen as the default format because it is easier to read than the
non-bubble format (see examples below). The non-bubble format will be provided upon request.
