Colpron, dans son « Dictionnaire des anglicismes », range les termes « lecteur d'épreuves » et « lecture d'épreuves » dans la catégorie des anglicismes. Or, une vérification dans les dictionnaires de langue prouve hors de tout doute que le terme « lecteur d'épreuves » appartient bel et bien au lexique français; l'expression serait d'ailleurs synonyme de « correcteur d'épreuves ». 6, record 2, French, - correcteur%20d%27%C3%A9preuves
