Highlighters are felt tip markers filled with translucent ink that are useful for marking text. They come in bright colors and are useful for school and work applications. They are sold in stores and can be mimicked in computer programs. They are relatively inexpensive and commonly sold in packs of yellow, blue, and pink.

Highlighters are a wonderful product for the office and school. Highlighters are felt tip markers filled with translucent ink that are useful for marking lines of text on pages for future reference or emphasis. Unlike a regular marker, which would obscure the marked text, highlighters allow the text to still be visible under the mark. Highlighters come in a variety of bright, usually fluorescent colors, such as blue, pink, yellow, orange, and green.

Highlighters are useful for many school and work applications. Students are often required to have highlighter pens as part of their school supplies arsenal because they are used to mark references or important information on documents used in research preparation for reports or study for tests. Similarly, workplace highlighters are useful for marking text, graph or table information that is reviewed in meetings, or for marking text that will be needed for reference for a later project. Highlighters also come in handy when editing documents.

Unlike dry highlighters or dry highlighters, which use no ink and are useful for marking text on extremely thin sheets of paper, such as in Bibles, standard highlighters will smudge through thin sheets. However, on standard-weight paper, highlighter marks dry pretty quickly.

Highlighting is such a useful tool that many computer programs now have features that mimic highlighters. Text can be manually highlighted in many word processing programs with the click of a button, serving the same purposes as highlighting printed text.

Highlighters are sold in school and office supply stores and some art supplies. They are relatively inexpensive and sold individually and in multipacks. The most commonly packaged colors are yellow, blue and pink. This trio of colors are often sold packaged together to give users three distinctly different colors in case highlighting tasks serve multiple purposes in one document.
