- Worth noticing
- Its proofing station flags specific issues, including unclosed quotations and unusually loose lines, with page numbers.
Field notes
The described intake accepts separate Word files for chapters, a ZIP, or a single whole-book file, and the front-matter station has individual fields for items such as dedication and epigraph. The displayed type case names four faces, while the proofing example calls out page-specific issues including a quotation that does not close. The homepage states that processing stays on the user's computer; that privacy claim is presented by the project, not independently verified here.
