Easiest Way to Highlight Text on Any Webpage

Are you tired of losing track of important information on webpages? Look no further! With the Highlighter Chrome extension, you can easily highlight text on any webpage with just a few simple steps.

Simple Highlighting Process

Highlighting text has never been easier. Simply select the desired text on a webpage, right-click, and choose the "Highlight" option from the menu. Alternatively, you can use the default keyboard shortcut 'Alt+H' (or '^H' on Mac) for quick and effortless highlighting.

Saved Highlights

One of the most convenient features of the Highlighter extension is that all highlighted texts are automatically saved. This means that your highlights won't disappear when you exit a page. When you revisit the same page, all your highlights will be there, just as you left them.

Please note that while the Highlighter extension works seamlessly on most webpages, it may not be compatible with highly dynamic sites like Facebook or some email clients. However, the developers are continuously working on expanding its compatibility in the future.

View and Manage Your Highlights

With the Highlighter extension, you have easy access to all your highlights. You can view and copy all the highlights on a page with just a few clicks. Additionally, you can select existing highlights and choose to either delete them or copy their content for further use.

Customize Your Highlighting Experience

The Highlighter extension allows you to personalize your highlighting experience. You can customize the highlight colors and even change the text color to suit your preferences. Make your highlights stand out and make information retrieval a breeze.

Change the Keyboard Shortcut

If you prefer a different keyboard shortcut for highlighting text, no worries! You can easily change the default shortcut through the Chrome settings. Just go to 'chrome://extensions/shortcuts' and make the desired adjustments.

Open-Source Project and Community Contributions

The code for the Highlighter extension is fully open-source and available on GitHub. You can find it at https://github.com/jeromepl/highlighter. The developers encourage users to report any issues and contribute to the project, making it even better.

Protecting Your Privacy

We value your privacy and want you to feel secure while using the Highlighter extension. It is important to note that the extension uses Google Analytics to gather non-personal user information and usage data. However, it does not collect browsing information such as the contents of your highlights or the URLs you access.

To learn more about our privacy practices, we invite you to read our privacy policy at https://github.com/jeromepl/highlighter/blob/master/privacy_policy.md.

works exactly as I want it to. If you want to highlight PDF's, just use adobe acrobat :)

Parth

It works on every site except for pdfs tried refreshing and using but still didn't work, I had installed it mainly for pdfs so it became redundant.

Perfectly simple. No need to create account or login. Just local data!

Simple & straightforward. Everything works perfectly until you switch computers - then all your highlights are stuck on your old computer with no way to transfer them. Please add functionality to trensfer data to a new computer.
