I have received my edited paper. What should I do next?
We always edit using the Track Changes feature in Word (under the Review tab), to give you the option of accepting or rejecting each edit. We strongly recommend that you check every edit, rather than simply incorporating all of our changes, in case our editors have inadvertently misunderstood the text at any point.
We suggest looking at our comments as you work through the document. In general, the comments point out where the text needs to be clarified or further considered.
