Premium editing is performed by two subject-expert editors and approved by a managing editor. In this process, the first editor will correct spelling, grammar, usage and punctuation errors. The second editor will alter sentences that sound awkward or unnatural, and may point out portions of the document that are vague, confusing or need to be rewritten. Premium editing includes an editing summary, which will address any concerns or comments that the editors may have about your paper. Because our Premium service is so thorough, we guarantee that all Premium submissions will receive an editing certificate.
Standard editing is performed by one subject-area expert editor, and approved by a managing editor. Any spelling, grammar, or word usage errors will be corrected, but your editors will not try to improve the style or flow of your paper as they would a Premium submission. You will not receive an editing summary, and we do not guarantee that all Standard submissions will earn an editing certificate.
If you choose Standard translation, every effort will be made to preserve the linguistic structure of your original document. In addition, your paper will receive our Standard editing service after we translate it into English. That means four people will review your file: a translator who works in your area of study, a managing translator who will perform a quality review, an English-language editor in your area of study, and a managing editor.
Premium translation involves more restructuring of your words within a sentence during the translation process to produce document that reads as though a native English speaker wrote it. Premium translation also includes our Premium editing service, which focuses on improving the style and flow of your paper, resulting in a more polished final product. Your paper will be reviewed by five people: a two-person translation team, and three editors.
Much like a journal peer review, authors can be certain that AJE reviewers are all university-based experts in areas of academic research that match the topics in their manuscripts. Our reviewers have published extensively in peer-reviewed journals and serve on journal editorial boards.
However, the NewReview service for authors is intended as preparation for a journal's peer review process, not as a replacement. Our reviewers are not making an assesment for acceptance for any one particular journal, but instead have the goal of helping a manuscript reach its highest potential in terms of overall quality. Unlike a traditional journal peer review, our experts work with authors to help improve the quality of their papers with the shared goal of producing an improved manuscript.
In addition to a confidential evaluation of your manuscript, NewReview experts also give you numerous suggestions for improving your paper, which is a service rarely offered by journal editors.
The NewReview service gives you faster feedback (about a week from time of submission), than peer review through a journal, which can take up to 6-8 weeks, or even longer. With this feedback, you can improve your paper before it goes to a journal’s peer review, increasing your chances of success.
We are currently able to process the following file types:
File types that are not on this list should be exported as EPS files. We can also advise authors using alternative software on the best procedure to export figures in one of our recommended file types.
This is the first time I use AJE for a manuscript. I am very pleased with their work and I highly recommend their services. I will definitively recommend them to my colleages and will use them myself for my future manuscripts.
