Substantive Editing
The most intensive form of editing; sentences may be removed or added, paragraphs may be rewritten.
Proofreading
Grammar, style, repetition, jargon, and word usage will be corrected.
Formatting
Ensure that the document is within the intended format, according to the end target - for example, a newspaper, a magazine or a thesis.
References
The consulted literature is double-checked to make sure that every citation appears related to an item in the bibliography.
