Free proofreading service

December 11, 2010 at 10:25 am Leave a comment

My daughter has a tendency to skip prepositions in her writing.  Word like “the”, “for”, “to”, and “of” just seem to get left out.  Because she knows that she intended them to be in the sentence, when she’s proofreading she often doesn’t notice that they aren’t there.

But, she found an easy way to catch these mistakes using Adobe Reader.

She saves her document as a .pdf file, opens it in Adobe, then click on View, Read  Out Loud.  Adobe reads the document out loud to her and those missing words become glaringly obvious.   Plus, this proofreading service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
