FrameMaker is different from that other software you mention...
You cannot easily "highlight" text that way in FM. Either use colored
text instead, or insert the text in a table where the table cells have
a colored fill.

Why do you need text highlighted in this way? Is it for online viewing
only, or for draft comments, or what? Perhaps we can come up with a
better solution that looks more professional (IMHO).
