Toggle Highlighting in Documents & Printer-Friendly Display
Posted by Jennifer Stein on April 6, 2011
Whether it’s in Personal Profiles, Quick Search, or the Archives, having your keywords highlighted within your search results can be an indispensable tool to help you determine relevance of a document. The ability to quickly scan the text and identify the context in which your search terms were used is likely one you likely use every single day.
What’s New?
These document highlights are great for your own search and retrieval activities, but if you’re preparing documents for another person you may wish to provide them with a “clean” version – i.e. without highlighting. If you wish to do so without having to change your OWN display settings each time, we now off the ability to toggle full text document highlighting on and off from within the display and printer-friendly screens.
Click the toggle link to turn highlighting off for the current display. This will override your settings only for the current screen. You can click again to turn the highlighting back on for the document you’ve displayed.

Within a full text document, you'll find the "Keywords" toggle in the Document Tools menu. Click to turn keyword highlighting off for the current view.

In the printer-friendly display, the toggle to turn keyword highlighting on or off is located at the top of the screen. This toggle will work even when multiple documents are displayed in printer-friendly mode.
Display Settings – Did you Know?
In case you’re not already aware, there are a variety of keyword highlighting options available to you, in the Display Settings menu, for both the “peek” (citation) and full document. Unlike the toggles described above (which operate on the individual document(s) you’ve displayed), these Display Settings will apply site-wide. Don’t forget to click “Save” to save your changes!

Change your display settings if you prefer a different style of highlighting for Peeks and Documents.
