There was a company in the early 90s that was doing exactly what you described. They would produce books where some of the words were bold and some were normal. If you read just the bold words, the text made sense. You could read all the words and the text would read as originally written. I don't know how many books they actually did this way, I saw a Bible that was written like that. The company was called QuickScan if I remember correctly, but I can't seem to find any record of them online. Cony – well the post was an April Fools Day joke, but your idea is a good one.

Why not just change the fonts color of the unimportant part? We don’t need to cover the text that isn’t important. Why not just change the fonts color of the unimportant part?
