Rewriting

Tedopres offers rewriting services to help you convert existing documentation into Simplified Technical English. The following sample was rewritten using the HyperSTE Simplified Technical English checker tool.

Example, before and after

BEFORE - Original text:
Gain access to blade. After removing old blade, new blade may be fitted by proceeding in reverse order, using gloves to avoid injuries by teeth of blade.
Before you attempt any of the above, the power should have been switched off.

AFTER - Text rewritten in Simplified Technical English:
Make sure that the on/off switch is in the "off" position.
Remove the blade cover from the machine.
Warning: wear gloves when you touch the blade.
Remove the old blade. Install the new blade. See figure A.
Install the blade cover.

Rewriting the original text in Simplified Technical English has led to a text that has complete and compact sentences that clearly describe every action separately - and in the correct order.
