Make a keyword-highlighted reading copy.
Paste plain text, choose one exact word or phrase, and make every matching occurrence yellow and bold. Download a reading copy to inspect, print or save as a PDF, then share manually through Gmail or Drive.
Matches are case-sensitive literal substrings, including inside words, from left to right without overlap. No regular expressions, word-boundary detection or spelling changes. This creates a new plain-text handout: original fonts, images, tables, links and comments are discarded. To retain a rich Google Doc, format matches manually or use a reviewed Apps Script in your own document.
