On my Mac laptop, using Firefox, how do I highlight a passage within a website in a colored font before bookmarking the website?

Where do I find Firefox's color options?

Anything else I need to know about the process?

Many thanks to anyone who can help!

When you save a Firefox bookmark, it just saves the URL, not the current page. When you use the bookmark, it takes you to the URL and retrieves the page from the server again. So... the highlighting won't be there the next time. Maybe you could print the page to PDF and keep it that way??

Also, I don't think Firefox has a highlighting feature built in. Perhaps you can find an add-on for that?
