Proofreading means reading a proof copy of a
text in order to detect and correct any errors. A proof copy is
traditionally a version of a manuscript that has been typeset after
copy editing, but the line between copy editing and proofreading
is thin. Proof manuscripts often contain typographical errors introduced
during typesetting by mistyping (hence the word "typo" to refer
to misplaced or incorrect characters). Earlier, when handwritten
originals were common, it was often easier for a copy editor to
review and mark up a manuscript after it had been typeset. Today,
proofreading usually refers to reviewing any text, hardcopy or electronic
copy (on a computer), and checking for all types of errors. (Source:
Wikipedia).
