Create a soft marker-style text highlight with copyable CSS.
Online Tool
A little color can guide the eye.
.highlight {
color: #211d1a;
background-color: #e9cbbd;
padding: 0.16em 0.12em;
border-radius: 0.12em;
-webkit-box-decoration-break: clone;
box-decoration-break: clone;
}The clone setting repeats the highlight padding and shape on each wrapped line.
Tool Working Principle
The effect uses an inline background, padding, border-radius, and box-decoration-break: clone so the highlight is drawn around each line fragment. Contrast between the chosen text and highlight colors should be checked before use.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an account to use Text Highlight Effect Generator?+
No. Every tool on TypeTempo runs fully in the browser with no account, email, or API key.
Is my input text stored anywhere?+
Tool calculations use the text in your browser, and the app does not send that input to the TypeTempo application server. A preview may still request font files or other assets from an external provider; those requests do not include the text you entered.
Can I use the output commercially?+
You can use generated text and CSS in personal or commercial work. If a result depends on a named typeface or third-party asset, check that family's or asset's licence before using or distributing its files.
Which browsers are supported?+
The tools are designed for modern desktop and mobile browsers. Font rendering and individual CSS or Unicode features can vary, so check the specific result in the browsers and devices you support.
Why is box-decoration-break included?+
It asks the browser to paint the inline background and padding separately for each wrapped line fragment, rather than treating the full selection as one continuous box.
