Spelling, Typos, and Numbers
Using the wrong word can be more embarrassing than a typo—and spellcheck won’t help you. PerfectIt approaches spelling differently, looking at a combination of context and common errors.
Consistent Capitalization
Checks for consistent capitalization of words & phrases, heading capitalization, and even customized house capitalization preferences.
Undefined and Inconsistent Abbreviations
Check for consistent presentation of abbreviations (e.g. Nasa/NASA/N.A.S.A.). Ensure that every abbreviation is defined the first time it appears. Make sure each abbreviation is defined only once, defined only in one way, and only used if it appears more than once.
Incorrect or Missing Table and Figure Numbering
Find if tables appear in the correct order; check for missing table/figure headings as well as inconsistent naming.
Errors that Spellcheck Won't Find
Check for errors that spellcheck won’t catch, including common typing mistakes (e.g. 'manger' instead of 'manager') and embarrassing errors; Check for individual words spelled in more than one way (e.g. 'adviser' and 'advisor'); Correct numbers in sentences that were written as numerals but should be spelled out (and vice versa).
