written out

Spelled in full

Written out means expressed in words rather than symbols or abbreviations.

A check for five hundred dollars, written out uses words instead of numerals.

Written out also describes something composed in full form: I need the agreement written out, not just a handshake.

To be written out of a story or will is to be deliberately removed from it.
