Which code does this activity belong in?
Document Preparation Services covers establishments whose primary activity is writing, editing, typing, or transcribing documents for clients, including letter and resume writing, proofreading, word processing, desktop publishing, and secretarial transcription services. The boundary with Business Service Centers is that Document Preparation Services focuses on the intellectual and creative work of preparing content, while Business Service Centers provide copying, duplicating, and related operational support services as their primary function. Court reporting and stenotype recording, though involving stenography, are classified in Other Business Support Services rather than this industry.
