There are two ways to highlight text in images in Preview. You can highlight text in all images, jpeg, png, or tiff. You can use the Apple Preview application to annotate images by highlighting text. It can be tricky to do that as there is no ready-made highlight tool; however, there are two different ways to highlight text:
1) use semi-transparent shapes/rectangles and
2) use a semi-transparent sketch underline.
The second method is super easy and fast once you have your colors set up to highlight text as you read it. You don’t have to copy/paste and resize as you do with the first method. The first method is also a good option if you want to create shapes that add highlights.
Exact Steps:
Open your image in Preview and select the markup tool located at the top right to display the markup toolbar.
1. To highlight text with semi-transparent shapes, select the rectangle tool, choose a fill color, and set the border to none. Adjust the opacity of the fill color to make it less transparent. Then position the shape over the words you wish to highlight. You can copy and paste the shape to highlight additional words or sections.
2. Select the Sketch tool from the toolbar on the left to highlight text with a semi-transparent underline. Set the fill to none, choose a border color, and adjust the border's thickness to make it thicker. Now you can use the tool to highlight multiple text or sections by marking over them.
