| Aspect | A Proofreader | Copy Editor |
|---|---|---|
| Primary Role | Checks for grammatical, spelling, punctuation, and typographical errors | Revises content for clarity, style, tone, and coherence |
| Skills & Certifications | Strong language skills, attention to detail, often certifications in editing or proofreading | Advanced editing skills, style guides knowledge, often certifications in editing or publishing |
| Work Environment | Freelance, publishing houses, media companies | Publishing, media, corporate communications |
While both roles focus on improving written content, a proofreader primarily corrects errors before publication, whereas a copy editor makes substantive revisions to enhance clarity and style. Understanding these differences helps employers and job seekers identify the right position for their skills and career goals.

Our publishing client is looking for Proofreaders with previous experience working with technical content and translating content from English to Spanish or Italian. (There are multiple contracts open for each langague. ) They're using an in-house tool to translate their books into Spanish and Italian, and they'd like to find someone to proofread their translations before they're published to ensure accuracy. These positions are Monday-Friday 9AM-5PM ET.
They need someone who's comfortable with technical content. As the Proofreader, you don't need to be a subject-matter expert on the technologies int these books but do need to have previous experience proofreading technical content and be proficient with English and Spanish or English and Italian.
You'll be exposed to some "raw" HTML during their proofreading and don't need to be an expert in HTML, but should be comfortable working with it.
