DeJump Linguistic Services offers copyediting services to edit scientific or academic publications, thesis or manuscripts.

DeJump copyeditors examine your content and assess its grammar, sentence structure, punctuation, voice and orthograph in accordance with the industry standards. Our editors will make suggestions as to how to improve your content, whether it is for a novel or a scientific publication, while preserving your style.

In addition to the classic basic editing services (basic editing, intermediate editing and advanced editing), DeJump offers the following editing services: Developmental Editing, Structural Editing, Stylistic Editing, Picture Research, Reference Checking and Proofreading.

For manuscript copyediting, the following two services are very popular:

1) Manuscript Reading Evaluation

The manuscript reading evaluation enables you to get feedback on the quality of your manuscript. Our experienced authors with editorial experience read through the manuscript and gives you feedback in the form of a report.

The comments are meant to be constructive criticism and encouragements. Suggestions may target a specific area and/or an overall impression of the work. Our copyeditors read for content, structure and form, not spelling or grammatical errors. This service includes:

1. A one-time read with a report within
    30 days from the manuscript
    reception
2. Proofreading marks on first, middle
    and last chapters
3. An overall evaluation form
4. A cover quote about 35 words
5. An industry-ready review of about
    300 words
6. A descriptive page about the author
    and the copyediting of one press
    release

2) Manuscript Content Editing

With the manuscript content editing, we verify in detail the story, the character development, the impact, the continuity, as well as the language level and grammar. The manuscript is read thoroughly and scrutinized. It is returned with proofreading marks and suggestions on how to tighten up the writing.

This service includes:

1. Scheduled rapid reports, chapter by
    chapter (30 days to edit by DeJump
    30 days for corrections by the
