With this online tool, you can add highlighting to words in the given text. The text is turned into an image and the chosen words get their backgrounds changed to a bright color so that you can instantly visually notice all occurrences of these words in the text. There are two radio options to select which words should get highlighted and which ones shouldn't. The "Highlight Certain Words" option allows you to list all the words that need to be highlighted in a multi-line text field (enter one word or phrase per line). The "Highlight All Words" option highlights all the words in the text but allows you to specify exceptions for certain words (such as articles or conjunctions) that shouldn't be highlighted. You can also highlight groups of neighboring words by entering more than one word per line in these options. For example, to highlight the phrase "ginger cat" in the text, you can enter these two words on the same line, one after another. By default, the option "Ignore Punctuation" is turned on, which means that the phrases will get highlighted even if they have a comma. For example, if this option is on, then the program will also highlight the words "ginger, cat" (or words with any other punctuation between them). To avoid the hassle of inputting upper and lower case versions of the same word separately (such as "the" and "The"), you can disable the "Case Sensitive" option (or you can enable it to match words of specific letter case). The program also has multiple options for customizing the image where the highlighted words will be visualized. First and foremost, you can specify the width of the output image. For example, it can be 400, 600, or 800 pixels. If you have structured text with a well-defined format and fixed width (such as a poem or multi-paragraph text), you can omit the width parameter. In this case, the program will automatically calculate the width itself to fit the text to this width exactly. For example, if the longest line in the text takes 350 pixels, then the width of the image will be automatically set to 350 pixels. The height of the image is calculated automatically based on the number of lines in the text and the line height parameter set in the options. For example, if there are 5 lines in your text, and the line height is set to 50px, then the height of the image will be 250px. You can also add padding around the drawn text. For example, it can be 10, 20, or 30 pixels. The padding is added to the width and height of the image. For example, if the image width is set to 300px and padding is 10px, then the new image width will be 320px. Additionally, you can choose a font for the text from multiple font choices and specify the font size. To use a custom font for the text, you can switch to the "Custom" mode and paste a URL to the custom font. The last block of options allows you to customize the color palette for highlighting. In particular, you can specify the color of the highlighted words and set the marker color. Similarly, you can specify the letter color and another color for the background for words that are not highlighted. The final option lets you specify the background color of the entire image. Each color option accepts English color names, hex codes, and RGB codes. You can also select a color interactively using the color picker tool that's attached next to each color option. If you want to use more colors for highlighting words, you can use a newly added feature. For each word entered in the text field (in the first block of options), you can specify a color in the format "word = word-color/background-color". For example, if you need to highlight the word "hot" in red and "cold" in blue, you can use the format "hot = red" and "cold = blue". If you also need to add a background color, then the format can be "hot = red/salmon" and "cold = blue/lightBlue". If you only need to change the background color but leave the words in the same color, then the format can be "hot = /salmon" and "cold = /lightBlue". When you assign such individual color rules for words, then they will override the general color scheme set in the options described earlier. Textabulous!

In this example, we highlight several words in a poem. We select the "Highlight Certain Words" mode and enter the words "sky", "beauty", "stars", "blue", and "grace". We use the Courier New font for the text, lavender color for the background, and change the shade of the specified words to the beautiful coral color. As the poem has a vertical format and short lines, we do not specify the width parameter. The program automatically determines it so that the text fits in it as tightly as possible.
In this example, we highlight three phrases in a short post with a pink marker. We activate the "Ignore Punctuation" option, which ignores punctuation between the words in the phrases. In this case, the ellipsis in the phrase "present…moment" gets ignored between the words so the entire phrase gets highlighted. We specify a fixed width of 980 pixels for the image text and set the writing style for the post to the Georgia font.
In this example, we highlight all the words in the text about Mount Everest, except conjunctions, prepositions, and articles that we leave as-is. Since the text does not have a fixed width (it's a long paragraph of text), we set the image width to 1000px. We also set the font size to 40px, line height to 50px, and padding to 20px. We use the Times New Roman font and set the marker color to steel-blue and use khaki color for the pen.
In this example, we highlight a word and a phrase made out of two adjacent words in the text. We enter the word "red" and the phrase "cat is" on two separate lines in the highlight option. To highlight a phrase, all the words in it must also be adjacent in the text. We also strictly match the punctuation, so the phrase with a comma in it "cat, is" is not highlighted in red.
In this example, we change the color of two words in a joke. We use a red sharpie for the words "tomato" and "salad" and a green sharpie for all other words. We also use a custom "Permanent Marker" font, which we import from Google Fonts via a URL that we enter in the custom font field.
In this example, we highlight different words in a poem in different colors. On each line of the text, we use one of the seven rainbow colors for a specific word. For instance, on the first line, we mark the word "rainbow" in red with a light-red fill (color hex code #ffbaba) by using the format "rainbow = red/#ffbaba". And on the seventh line, we highlight the word "rain" with a violet color and a dark-violet background (color hex code #521052).
