Outrageously Funny Word Dictionary :: Excerpting

👉 Excerpting is a process in which authors, editors, or other writers take a portion of an original piece of writing and cut it down to a specific length. This can be done for various reasons such as making the text more accessible or easier to read, or simply to save on printing costs. For example, if you're writing a book about history, you might choose to excerpt a short section from a chapter where you want to emphasize key points without overwhelming the reader with too much information.
