Even if you never use the symbols in a document, your awareness of them-and the points of emphasis under review-will serve you well. It is useful to be familiar with the various proofreading marks that were traditionally used to review and revise hard copy documents. Some of today’s word processing programs incorporate many proofreading symbols in their menus. Professional proofreaders often use standard markings that serve to indicate where changes needed to be made on a physical document. If you work in an environment where a document exists as a hard copy during the revision process, you may use or see handwritten proofreading symbols. You may have made changes, and most word processing programs will allow you to track those changes across several versions and authors. By now you have completed a general and specific review of the document, with attention to detail.
