Page's title after being edited down (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

leaf

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'page's' is the definition.
(leaf can mean a page)

'title after being edited down' is the wordplay.
'LEAF' is hidden in amongst the letters.
But, I am uncertain how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for leaf that I've seen before include "Part of a plant and of a book" , "Part of tree or book" , "Organ of photosynthesis in plants" , "Turn over a new one to reform" , "Page of a book" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
