FAQs

Which type of highlighter is best?

When you’re shopping for highlighter pens, brands like Sharpie, BIC and Zebra are considered top picks for their ink quality and ability to easily highlight text. For daily use and high-volume use, liquid highlighters or tank highlighters deliver bright visibility and larger amounts of ink. For thinner paper, gel highlighters are good options because their ink doesn’t bleed through. If you prefer working with digital documents, laptops, tablets and smartphones have highlighting features. For more precise work, you can consider using a stylus pen.

What is a highlighter used for?

Highlighter pens use bright, transparent ink that brings attention to specific text while keeping the words clear and easy to read. They are important tools for studying, organizing notes and marking important details in documents. They help emphasize important points in notebooks, workbooks and on sticky notes. They can also be used in arts and crafts like journaling, scrapbooking and sketching.

What is the difference between a marker and a highlighter?

The difference between markers and highlighters is the type of ink they use and how they are used. Markers use bold and opaque ink that’s meant to stand out when applied on surfaces like paper, construction paper, glass or a whiteboard. They’re best used for things like writing, drawing or colouring. Highlighters use a transparent and fluorescent ink that’s used to make text stand out while still being easy to read. They’re best used for studying and organizing notes.

How can highlighters help with studying?

Highlighters can help with studying by helping you draw your attention to key terms, dates, concepts or other pieces of information quickly. When used with a consistent studying system, highlighters can help you colour-code information, so information is easier to organize visually while you’re preparing for a quiz or exam. For effective studying, only highlight specific keywords or phrases in your binder, notebook or textbook. If you highlight too much text, it won’t be as effective for studying.
