Why not go back into the original Pages v5.5.2 document. When you pass your pointer over that highlight, and a comment box pops open, you have your answer… it is a comment, and not a character fill color, which is the legitimate highlight color that all other word processors name it.

This tutorial assume that you are using Mac OS X 10.6, Snow Leopard; older versions are slightly different, though I think 10.5 is the same. The next task, after downloading and installing the Gentium font, is to configure your Mac so that you can easily type Greek characters instead of English ones. Same thing in Pages. Select text and use the Format menu. But in Pages you can also set a color to go behind text, so it looks like you may have highlighted it with a marker. To do that, select the text and then open the Inspector. Go to text Text inspector section, and then More. THere you can set a Background Fill for the character or paragraph. This gives you complete control over the exact highlight color your Mac will use, but because this gives you such a wide range of options, when using the color picker I recommend you follow these steps: 1. Open a few panels and windows containing text, and highlight the text in each. Position the panels and windows side-by-side.

How is this different than inserting a Text Box? With a Text Box, you have a box of text that can be used as a callout, will move and allow the text around it to flow, and with the Object inspector, can have background fill, border effects, etc. (be sure to also use the Text inspector to adjust the inset margin so the text isn't overshadowed by any border effects).

If there is a pop-up comment box, click delete in it. That will take the comment color off your selected text. Now, replace with a proper highlight by clicking the gear icon in the bold, italic, and underline button row of your Format Text panel. You want character fill color, either by clicking in the inkwell, or if you have a custom color in mind, the color globe icon. Word will understand these applied colors as traditional highlight colors.
