    Somebody else asked "when were highlighters invented?" and this is the answer 'Anonymous' gave them:

    The first fiber tip pen was invented by Yukio Horie in 1962 in Japan. A highlighter is a fiber tip pen filled with transparent brightly colored ink. The Avery Dennison Corporation trademarked the name Hi-Liter®, they invented the name highlighter, but they did not invent the pen.
