Highlight text by Nazeli

Highlight text is a lightweight Firefox add-on that lets you mark, save, and revisit important parts of any webpage. Whether you're researching, studying, or skimming articles, it helps you keep track of what matters most - all while staying private and distraction-free.

Highlight text allows you to:
→ Select any sentence or paragraph and apply a visual highlight with one click
→ View all saved highlights in a persistent sidebar for easy review
→ Restore accidentally removed highlights with the undo feature
→ Export your selections as PDF or DOC for notes and reports
→ Work seamlessly on news sites, documentation, blogs, and PDFs
→ Toggle blank highlight text mode for drafting or clean markup

The extension saves every highlighted paragraph locally, so your marks stay exactly where you left them—even after refreshing or returning days later. Unlike complex annotation tools, Highlight text keeps things simple: no accounts, no ads, no external servers.

How to Use
• Select text
• Click the icon
• View saved highlights

All processing happens in your browser. Highlights are stored per site and never leave your device.

This add-on requests only essential permissions:
activeTab – to interact with the current page when highlighting
storage – to save your highlights locally

scripting – to apply visual marks safely
