  • There will be no charge if the wrong file is being replaced with the correct version within 24 hours of confirming the assignment.
  • The replacement of the file requested after 24 hours will be considered as cancellation of the file.

Cancellation Policy

  • A cancellation will only be allowed if the wrong file has been sent for editing.
  • Cancellation of the file is allowed any time before the delivery of the file.

Journal URL

The responsibility of a functional journal guidelines URL for formatting lies with the client. We may or may not get back to you if the journal URL provided by you is inactive or in a language other than English. If the URL requires us to login, please provide the login details.

Quotation

It is deemed that once you have accepted our quotation over e-mail, it is a formal order. You are then liable to make payment for the order even if you disagree with the pricing at a later stage.

Auto responder from our website is not a confirmation that we have started work on your assignment. We reply to all requests with the exact quotations.

If there is a mismatch between the deadlines you have given us and the priority selection, we will give preference to the priority and not the deadline when giving you the pricing details.

For direct TeX editing and for editing TeX file in MS Word delivery format, we request you to always send us the PDF file along with the TeX file. In case you do not send us the PDF file, we will send you an e-mail requesting you to send us the PDF file. If we don't receive the file, we will be unable to send you the quotation or start editing your assignment.

E-mail Address

By providing your e-mail address to us, you give us permission to send you regular updates about our service and company. If you do not wish to receive the updates, let us know and we will stop sending you such e-mails.

We will try and contact you once according to the information provided by you over e-mail. In such situations, you will need to contact us to receive your edited files.

Delivery of Files

We always deliver edited documents within the deadline promised to you. In case you do not receive your document, please contact us immediately. Also, check your junk e-mail folder.

For editing PDF file in PDF delivery format, we require single column documents with double spacing. It is difficult to edit in double column and single space files as there is not enough room to write on, and the final markup is often not legible. Therefore, to maintain the quality of edited document, we change the delivery file format to MS Word so you can clearly see the changes that have been made with the help of track changes.
