clean copies

Pristine duplicate documents

Clean copies are documents free of marks, corrections, or annotations—final versions ready for submission or distribution.

After editing a manuscript with tracked changes, you produce a clean copy incorporating all revisions.

In legal and publishing contexts, a clean copy is the polished document that replaces marked-up drafts: Send me a clean copy once you've addressed the edits.
