-The "Extruded cut" operation allows you to remove material from an object by extruding a profile or a face
-along the normal to its plane.
+The <b>Extruded cut</b> operation allows you to easily remove material from a \b solid by extruding a profile along the normal to its plane.

+
+To produce the <b>extruded cut</b>:

+
+- The \b profile. It must be a \b closed edge or wire and it must be \b planar.
+
+- The \b height of extrusion. It's calculated from the <b>base profile</b> along the normal to its plane.
