stenographic
Using symbolic transcription
Stenographic describes anything relating to shorthand writing—a system of rapid notation using symbols or abbreviations.
A stenographic record captures speech verbatim in compressed form.
Stenographic skills were once essential for secretaries and court reporters.
The word can also describe any extremely condensed or abbreviated style of writing: His stenographic notes were illegible to anyone but himself.
