dandclark has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts: == [css-highlight-api] Should ::highlights be printed? == Highlight pseudos are currently not printed, at least in the Chromium implementation. Considering other pseudos like `::selection` and `::target-text`, it makes sense for these not to show up on printed documents. But for `::highlight` it's less clear. Highlights used for emphasizing parts of the text might be appropriate to print. In some applications highlights could convey specific semantic value, e.g. a language-teaching application might use differently-colored highlights to demonstrate which parts of a sentence are verbs vs adverbs vs adjectives, etc. The user would likely expect these highlights to be printed. On the other hand, highlights used for custom find-on-page or spellcheck probably shouldn't be printed. Whatever we decide, we should probably add some clarity about this to the spec. Thanks @mrego for raising this point.
