Proofreading 2 a Document 


Russell: Hey, LeeAnn, you were an English major, right? 


LeeAnn: Yes. 


Russell: Could you proofread 1 this for me? 


LeeAnn: I don't know. Do you want me to proof it for content or for structure? 


Russell: For everything. 


LeeAnn: So you're asking me to fact check all of the facts and figures and to parse 3 each line to find any spelling, grammar, or punctuation 4 errors. 


Russell: That's right. I used the spell check on it, but some typos may have slipped through. I wouldn't be surprised if it were riddled 5 with other errors, too. 


LeeAnn: Right. What about the formatting 6


Russell: Check that, too. You can edit out the errors as you go along. 


LeeAnn: You want me to proofread and edit it? 


Russell: Sure, if you don't mind. 


LeeAnn: You do realize that this is a 400-page document, right? 


Russell: Is there a problem?
