Proofing, proofing, proofing, so critical for invitations & programs

We can't stress enough how important it is to proof
your invitation and program wording.
It is so easy to miss mistakes.
At Designs by Ginny we give you plenty of
opportunities to proof your wording and
we also do our best to catch mistakes
and even with a critical eye mistakes
can be missed. The following email I received
helps to explain why it is so easy to miss
mistakes.

You may find this is weird, but interesting!


If you can raed this,
you have a sgtrane mnid too


Can you raed this?
Olny 55 plepoe out of 100 can.

I cdnuolt blveiee that I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd what I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid, aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it dseno't mtaetr in what oerdr the ltteres in a word are, the olny iproamtnt tihng is that the frsit and last ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can still raed it whotuit a pboerlm. This is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the word as a wlohe. Azanmig huh? Yaeh and I awlyas tghuhot slpeling was ipmorantt!

So, if you can read the above with no problem
you will understand why it is so important to proof.

Happy Proofing!
