ABSTRACT:
The highlighting tape generally comprises a highlighting film and an adhesive. The highlighting film is a thin, pliable translucent film of a color that will make the underlying text stand out. The film is capable of being cut or torn. The adhesive is a non-permanent, translucent adhesive that is easily held in place when pressed to a surface. The highlighting tape may be dispensed from a tape dispenser that supports a tape roll configuration. The tape dispenser is trapezoidally shaped and designed to fit the average user's hand. The tape dispenser generally comprises a hollow casing. Hinged to the hollow casing is a tape roll holding mechanism which employs a spinning, toothed hub which easily holds in place a roll of highlighting tape wound about a toothed core. Also hinged to the hollow casing is a release latch which when open allows the tape holding mechanism to swing out and be reloaded with a new roll of highlighting tape. When closed, the release latch holds the tape roll holding mechanism in place for easy tape dispensing. To employ the highlighting tape one need only dispense the tape from the tape dispenser using its guide lip to guide placement of the tape atop the original document. When highlighting is completed, one need only press down and away on the guide lip to tear the tape free from the dispenser. The highlighting tape can easily be peeled up and relocated to highlight new text or thrown away.
