What is subject-matter editing?
Subject-matter editing is the specialized review of technical texts by experts with both linguistic and content expertise.
Unlike general copyediting, our subject-matter editors check not only grammar and style, but also technical correctness, terminology, and industry-specific conventions. At Tratext, we work with editors who are lawyers, physicians, engineers, or scientists themselves.
Whether academic publications, technical documentation, or legal briefs—our subject-matter editing ensures the highest quality. We check consistency, completeness, and correct use of technical terminology.
