Highlighter Pens

Highlighter pens, also known as highlighters, are writing instruments designed to emphasize or mark important text in a document or book. They are typically used to draw attention to key points, important information, or significant details in a text. Highlighter pens are available in a wide range of colors, including yellow, green, pink, orange, blue, and purple. They are made with a felt tip that is designed to glide smoothly over paper without smudging or bleeding through to the other side. The first highlighter pen was invented in 1963 by a man named Dr. Frank Honn, who was looking for a way to mark important passages in his research papers without damaging the pages. He came up with the idea of using a felt tip pen filled with fluorescent ink that would not bleed through the paper. The first highlighter pens were yellow, which was the most visible color under normal lighting conditions. Today, highlighter pens are widely used by students, teachers, researchers, and professionals in a variety of fields. They are particularly useful for studying, note-taking, and research, as they allow users to quickly and easily identify important information in a text. Some highlighter pens are also designed to be erasable, allowing users to correct mistakes or change their markings as needed. In addition to their practical uses, highlighter pens have also become a popular tool for artistic expression. Many artists and designers use highlighter pens to create colorful and eye-catching illustrations, while others use them to add a pop of color to their bullet journal or planner pages.
