1. The basic concept of editing
Editing processing is a series of tasks such as further review, modification, and arrangement by the editors of the manuscripts they decide to adopt. The work to be done in editing and processing is summarized as: review, abridgement, addenda, error correction, and collation.
There are two needs for editing and processing: ① the need to disseminate scientific and technological information accurately and concisely; ② the need to improve the scientificity and readability of articles, that is, the need to realize the standardization and standardization of scientific journals.
2. Editing principles
The "Copyright Law" stipulates that journal editors "can make literal revisions and abridgements to articles, and the content should be revised with the author's permission." This is the general principle of editing. Editors should respect the original content and writing style of the author when processing the manuscript, and should not arbitrarily modify the arguments, arguments, discussions and conclusions of the article. If necessary, they can submit comments and ask the author to revise by themselves, or obtain the author's consent after revision. When processing manuscripts, the relationship between "writing responsibility" and "editing check" must be handled correctly. After the manuscript is processed, the author must be reviewed and approved. Generally, the author should read the proof sheet and sign on the proof sheet.

Editing and processing requires careful consideration and comprehensive care, but also focuses on the key points according to the specific circumstances of the manuscript. The general editing process starts from the remanufactured manuscript. Specific steps are as follows:
1. Read through the full text to get a rough idea of the content of the article.
2. Read the full text again with expert reviewer opinions.
3. Re-read the parts that are not clear or that the experts put forward to modify the opinions.
4. After understanding the expert opinions and the specific content of this article, integrate the review opinions of several experts into their own language, accurately convey the experts’ academic revision opinions to the author, and at the same time, follow the format of the publication.

At this time, he needs to read and review word by word, including the simplification and modification of the text, and the data Checking with references, unification of nouns, implementation of legal units of measurement, standardization and standardization of layout formats, etc. At present, electronic document processing is used for preliminary processing, which can very conveniently and clearly mark the problems in the manuscript on the document. After processing in this way, send it to the author via E-mail, and let them improve and modify it directly.
