No. Our editors will not write your essay or create new content for you. We only proofread and edit academic essays. Although we may suggest structural and stylistic changes, clients maintain content control over their work.  It is our practice to encourage persons to honestly and committedly delve into their writing process and we will not do anything to undermine or usurp their potential and ability as a writer.

Although we accept doc.,docx, pdf, txt., .po and .pot., we highly recommend that you submit all files in Microsoft Word (.doc and .docx) format as we are able to readily utilize the track changes function within this particular type of document.

  • To look at each revision, one at a time, on the Review tab, click Next, and then Accept or Reject.

    Word keeps or removes the change and then goes to the next one.

  • To accept all the changes at the same time, click the arrow next to Accept, and then click Accept All Changes.

  • To reject all the changes at the same time, click the arrow next to Reject, and then click Reject All Changes.

Important:  Choosing the No Markup view helps you see what the final document will look like, but it only hides tracked changes temporarily. The changes are not deleted, and they’ll appear again the next time someone opens the document. To delete the tracked changes permanently, you’ll need to accept or reject them.
