Yes, when we edit the manuscript, we will check basic journal guidelines and make sure your manuscript is correct.
We will:
- Check and change spelling/language (use the spelling style specified in the journal guidelines or if there are no requirements use whatever is dominant in the manuscript)
-
We will thoroughly check that your manuscript meets the word limits defined in the instructions for authors.
- If your manuscript is far over the limit, then we’ll let you know with a comment in the manuscript
- If you need a large word count reduction, get in touch for a custom quote
-
Check target journal guidelines and leave a guiding comment on the following:
- Word limits for abstract/manuscript
- Abstract structure
- Title page (e.g. missing information)
- Missing sections (highlights, abstract, introduction, conflict of interest statement, etc.)
We won't make actual formatting changes or leave placeholders for missing information.
