Frequently Asked Questions about proofread

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I check my LaTeX document for grammar and spelling errors?

You can proofread LaTeX sources by running the Skill on a single .tex file or an entire directory. It identifies grammar, spelling, and notation inconsistencies, then outputs a comprehensive report with line numbers and proposed fixes without altering your original files.

Can I check math notation consistency in a LaTeX research manuscript?

Yes, you can validate math notation consistency in LaTeX research manuscripts. The Skill enforces notation consistency checks alongside grammar and spelling validation, generating a structured report with line numbers and proposed fixes for any mathematical notation issues it detects.

Does proofreading LaTeX modify my original source files?

No, proofreading LaTeX does not modify your original source files. The Skill enforces a strict no-edit policy, meaning it only analyzes the .tex sources and outputs a structured findings report with current text and proposed fixes rather than applying changes directly.

How do I get a line-numbered report of typos in my .tex files?

You get a line-numbered report of typos in .tex files by running the Skill on your LaTeX project. It generates a comprehensive findings report that includes line numbers, current text, proposed fixes, category, and severity for each identified typo or grammar issue.

What is the best way to proofread an academic thesis written in LaTeX?

The best way to proofread an academic thesis in LaTeX is to use a tool that parses .tex sources without editing them. The Skill analyzes your entire directory of .tex files for grammar, style, and notation consistency, outputting a structured report to guide your manual corrections.

Can I check all .tex files in a directory at once for LaTeX consistency issues?

Yes, you can check all .tex files in a directory at once for LaTeX consistency issues. The Skill operates on either a single .tex file or all .tex files in the current directory, making it suitable for reviewing complete academic math and research manuscripts.
