PDF & ASCII proofing

I studied English and Linguistics because I've always been a little obsessed with readability — the kind where nothing trips the reader and every line lands exactly as it was spoken. For more than twelve years I've put that eye to work for court reporters, proofing final drafts so they go out polished, professional, and error-free.
My work is grounded in the standards your field trusts. I'm well-versed in Morson's English Guide for Court Reporters and the grammar-and-punctuation work of Margie Wakeman Wells, so your transcript doesn't just read clean — it holds up to the guidelines court reporters are held to.
Your work is demanding enough. Think of me as your quiet last set of eyes — the safety net that lets you send the record with confidence, so you can focus on the more important work only you can do.
Clear expectations make for smooth jobs. Here's exactly how I proof and how billing works.
Tell me your page count, format, and turnaround — I'll take care of the rest, and you can get back to the work that matters.
