Clients are expected to actively cooperate during the process.

ManuscriptEdit will provide a Journal Selection Report (JSR) that includes up to five suitable journals for submission. If the manuscript is rejected by two or more journals, ManuscriptEdit will continue to facilitate the publication process for up to one year from the start of the agreement.
It is important for the client to understand that journals may reject manuscripts citing poor novelty or methodological weaknesses. In such cases, the client bears the responsibility for addressing the cited reasons for rejection, although ManuscriptEdit will continue to support the submission process for the agreed period.
- After submitting the article to a target journal, it becomes the client's responsibility to address the reviewer comments. Reseapro's role is limited to refining the responses and preparing the response letter.

Information article on English Language Editing Certificate
Most top-tiered prestigious journals originate from the United States, United Kingdom, and European countries. To ensure the quality and clarity of language in research papers, many of these journals require authors to obtain a "English Language Editing Certificate" This certificate serves as evidence that the manuscript has been carefully reviewed and edited by a native English speaker to ensure accurate language usage, grammar, and overall readability.
In cases where the subject expert responsible for the research and writing of the article is not a native English speaker, it is advisable to hire an additional expert who possesses native-level proficiency in English. This expert will carefully review the manuscript and make necessary edits to meet the journal's language standards. The purpose of this additional review is to certify that the language used in the paper is of high quality and can effectively communicate the research findings to the intended audience.
We recommend that authors seeking publication in renowned journals from the US, UK, and Europe take this requirement into consideration and avail the language certification service. This step will significantly contribute to the success of their submissions and increase the likelihood of their work being recognized and appreciated by the academic community.
