You receive a tracked-changes file, a clean copy, and an editing certificate.

Anything else? Send your question with your manuscript when you request a quote.
Yes. Your manuscript is read only by the assigned editor, is not shared with anyone else, and is not used for any purpose other than editing.
No. We edit the language, not your data, results, or scientific claims. Where the meaning of a passage is ambiguous, the editor leaves a comment so that you decide.
It depends on the length of the manuscript and whether you choose standard or express turnaround. Every quote includes an estimated delivery time before you decide.
We accept Word (.docx) and LaTeX. Other formats, such as PDF, can be discussed when you request a quote.
Some journals ask for proof of language editing and some do not. TextGuild certificates can be verified online, so journal editors can confirm they are genuine. The decision to accept a manuscript always rests with the journal.
Follow the style your target journal asks for. If the journal does not specify, choose either one and your editor will apply it consistently throughout.
