Have you defined the field(s) as storable?

Link to FieldInfo class:

You need to set up your fields with acts_as_ferret. This is how I have mine setup (still learning Ferret and AAF so may not be totally correct but highlighting works):

acts_as_ferret( :fields => {
  :name => {},
  :desc => {},
  :body => {:store => :yes},
  :role => {},
})

This allows me to use the highlighting with the "body" field. The other ones still can't highlight.
