As you proceed, short citations (including id. citations) are corrected at the same time as their parent citations. You can clearly view what the tool sees as the parent citation and easily change the parent of the short or id. citation, if needed. 7 Check Quotes: Quickly validate against source documents. Quickly verify the accuracy and relevance of all quotes against the context of original source documents. For each quotation, you can click a radio button to show your text (in your draft document), mark changes to the source text or edit your text. Prepare Table of Authorities: Create or update your TOA in seconds. • Step through each listed authority along with the pages where each appears. You can delete just one or multiple instances of the authority from the table, if desired. If you delete anything in your TOA, it remains in your document. • You can add or edit headings, move citations and add or delete TOA citations. From the document on the left, you can add citations to the TOA on the right (e.g., law review citations). • Specify layout, sorting, content and format preferences. For example, you can center your TOA, move entries within a category and customize your Table based on your firm’s style. 8 Using Proofreading Tools Confidently proof your documents in minutes, not hours.
