Is there a particular reason why the yellow highlights are not showing up when I print a webpage? If I save the page, I can see hypothesis-highlight and other nodes throughout.
Printing in browsers often skips various "background graphics", which can include the highlights that Hypothesis draws. If your browser has an option to enable printing of background graphics, this may solve the issue.
@robertknight unfortunately, that also means that the Hypothesis sidebar and potentially other undesirable artifacts gets printed along with the highlights...
It looks like we might be able to address non-printing of highlights with print-color-adjust: exact in modern browsers. This in theory should enable printing of highlights without turning on printing of all background graphics on the page.
