document editing
Changing written files
Document editing is the process of modifying text, images, or other content within a file—revising wording, correcting errors, adjusting formatting, or reorganizing material.
The term applies across word processors, PDFs, spreadsheets, and collaborative platforms: The contract is still in document editing.
Most modern document editing happens digitally, though the concept predates computers.
