The amount of pages an editor can edit in an hour depends on a variety of factors such as:
1) Complexity of the material: If the material being edited is complex, the editor will likely not be able to edit as many pages in an hour. It can also take longer to complete more challenging material.
2) Ability level of the editor: An experienced editor will likely be able to edit more pages in an hour than a less experienced editor.
3) Technical requirements: If the text requires more formatting or if it involves illustrations, this will also affect how quickly and efficiently an editor can work.
4) Language: If the text is written in a language that is not the editor’s native language, it might take longer to edit as the editor will have to take more time in understanding the text correctly.
5) Length and size of the project: If the project is large and long, it will likely take the editor more time to edit it than if the project was short and concise.
It’s hard to give an exact number as to how many pages an editor can edit in an hour, as it depends on all of the factors mentioned above. However, an experienced editor will likely be able to edit 3-5 pages an hour depending on all of these considerations.
