Abstract
Disclosed are systems and methods for analyzing and improving document readability. For example, a method of automatic text evaluation is disclosed. The method can include the following steps: detecting whether a particular writing problem exists in text that is technically grammatically correct; scanning for at least one sign that indicates the possible occurrence or absence of the writing problem, the at least one sign comprising the term 'that'; and implementing correction logic for correcting the problem. The correction logic can specify a proposed edit, which can include, for example: deleting text; adding text; and/or reordering text. Various other rules for improving text are also disclosed.
