In a few days time I'm going to need someone with an excellent eye for detail, long attention span and excellent grasp of the english language to proofread my FYP, pick it apart piece by piece and track down any spelling mistakes or nonsense sentences that I might have missed.

Would anyone here be able to help me out? The document is about 60 pages long so it's not the worst. There'll be beer in it for whoever does it.

I would probably make the grammar worse by just holding it...

So my file is 98 pages and 84Mb, and won't attach to an email.

When I try to compress it online it becomes totally illegible. Anyone got any ideas?!

Got sorted, eventually found a web converter that would take that size of file and not destroy the contents. This is the site: https://www.pdfcompress.com/ in case anyone needs it in the future.

Lads I just sent on the file, if you can think of any improvements at all that can be made to it that would be great! Really appreciate it!


Anyone else want to join the party?

Class. There's my bathroom reading sorted for the next day or so! I'll have a look through it as fast as I can.
