Polish Telugu Manuscript

Job ID: 39854650

Budget: ₹1,500 – ₹12,500 INR

I have a Telugu book manuscript of roughly 100–200 pages that now needs a professional line-by-line polish. Your task is to comb through every sentence, fix spelling and grammar slip-ups, apply correct Telugu punctuation, and tidy up the page layout so the text reads smoothly and meets common publishing standards. While doing so, please be careful to preserve the author’s original tone, idiom, and narrative flow—clarity without dilution is the goal.

The three priorities are:
• Spelling and grammar corrections
• Formatting adjustments (paragraph breaks, alignment, headings, consistent fonts)
• Readability and style consistency across chapters

I normally work in MS Word but can supply the file in Google Docs or PDF if that suits your workflow; simply let me know what you prefer and I’ll export accordingly. Unicode Telugu (Google Input, Lekhini, etc.) is already in use, so no font conversion headaches should arise.

Deliverables
1. A fully edited manuscript in the original file format, ready for direct upload to the publisher.
2. A version with Track Changes or equivalent markup so I can review every modification.
3. A short editor’s note summarising any larger stylistic choices or recurring issues you observed.

If you have prior experience editing Telugu novels or non-fiction titles and can turn this around on a mutually agreed timeline, I’d love to collaborate.
