Sharpie Retractable Smear Guard Highlighter
The Highlighter With a Name They Already Trust, Now With Yours On It
When a Sharpie shows up in someone's hand, it carries instant credibility — and with bulk screen print logo imprinting, that credibility transfers directly to your brand.
Most branded giveaways get abandoned before the event is over. Recipients can tell when something was chosen for price rather than quality, and a forgettable item sends a forgettable message. You need something that earns desk space, not drawer space.
The Sharpie Retractable Highlighter gives you all of that in one order. With Sharpie custom imprinted highlighters in bulk, your logo lands on a tool people already reach for during meetings, training sessions, and daily work. The retractable click action with safety seal valve means there is no cap to lose — a small detail that makes a real difference for trade show and conference giveaways or new hire onboarding kits. Quick-drying smear guard ink keeps marked pages clean, and the chisel tip for highlighting and underlining handles everything from broad strokes to tight margin notes without skipping.

Anatomy of a Custom Pen
Choosing the right pen construction ensures your promotional giveaway looks professional, functions flawlessly, and stays in your customers' hands.
- The Essentials: A pen is built from core structural components—like the barrel (your main design real estate) and the ink style (ballpoint, gel, or rollerball), which dictates how smoothly it writes.
- The Accents: Secondary details like ergonomic grips, structural trim, and secure clips add both comfort for the writer and vibrant color-matching opportunities for your brand.

Artwork Resolution & File Formats
Because custom pens offer a compact printing canvas, standard web images (like JPG or PNG) can become blurry or jagged when scaled down.
- Required Formats: Please submit your corporate logo or text in a vector format, specifically .EPS or .SVG.
- Why it matters: Vector files use mathematical coordinates rather than pixels. This allows our printing equipment to scale your graphics down infinitely without losing a single pixel of crispness, ensuring fine lines.
That being said, feel free to send over whatever you have ready and our team will take it from there!
Exact Color Matching (PMS Colors)
When trying to align the Trim Color or accent pieces of a pen with your strict corporate identity, guessing the shade isn't an option.
- The System: We utilize the Pantone Matching System (PMS) to guarantee precision.
- How to use it: When submitting your design requirements, specify your brand's unique PMS color codes if you know them. This ensures the ink imprint on the barrel or the selected plastic trim matches your official company colors perfectly.
Don't fret if you don't have that information. We will do our best to match the colors!
Font Legibility & Minimum Sizes
The Clip Imprint (Clip Imp) area is an incredibly high-visibility spot for phone numbers or taglines, but it offers highly limited real estate.
- Font Choice: We recommend using clean, sans-serif fonts (like Helvetica, Arial, or Futura) for high-contrast legibility. Avoid intricate script or cursive fonts in this area.
- Minimum Size: Any text placed on the clip must be a minimum of 6 pt font to prevent the ink from filling in the loops of letters like e, o, or a. If you're squeezing a long URL onto the clip, consider using the main barrel instead to keep it readable at a glance.
