Proofread a 900 page PDF with photos

Completed Posted Aug 5, 2015 Paid on delivery
Completed Paid on delivery

The project is to proofread a large PDF document (900 pages) with photos of people and small blocks of text for each. You can see in the attached screenshot how much text is present. (Overall much less than 900 pages.)

There are two goals here:

1. Edit the text as needed. In some places the text is incomplete, poorly formatted, or otherwise requires minor changes in order to be clean and make sense.

2. flag images that don't have high enough resolution to look good in print.

In both cases you must add annotations to the PDF document with either text corrections or other remarks that will help the editor fix any problems. The output of the project is the same document, but with annotations included.

You can see some examples were already added by the editor (also visible in the screenshots).

You should have outstanding English skills for this project. When bidding please write a few sentences in English so I can gauge your level.

The project must be completed by August 9.

If this first project goes well I have two more very similar ones that you will be hired for as well.
