proofed

Reviewed for errors

Proofed describes something that has been made resistant to a particular substance or condition: waterproofed fabric, soundproofed walls.

In baking, dough that has proofed has risen after the yeast activates: Let the dough rest until it's proofed.

Text or documents that have been proofed have been checked for errors—short for proofread.
