I expected that the common terminology "syntax highlighting" would get them to the manual sections about font-locking. There is apparently no index entry that includes "highlight", and in particular no index entries for "syntax highlighting", "highlighting syntax", etc. Please consider adding such entries. Someone new to Emacs will likely think in terms of syntax highlighting and may not be familiar with the Emacsism "font-locking".
