Archival-style drawing pens typically use pigmented or archival inks that are waterproof, fade-resistant/lightfast, acid-free, quick-drying, and bleed-proof or smudge-resistant.

These pens work on many paper types but perform best on smooth, non-porous surfaces such as higher-quality drawing paper. Some ink formulas are not recommended for washable fabrics.

Many listings describe the ink as fast- or quick-drying and smudge- or smear-resistant. Some formulations are also labeled water- or bleed-resistant to reduce smearing and bleed-through.

They generally work well with markers and pencils, but product notes recommend using fineliners first and allowing the ink to fully dry before layering alcohol markers or inks to avoid smearing.

Color options include solid black and multicolor sets: bright colors (orange, pink, light blue, light green), neon/fluorescent shades (fluorescent pink, blue, green, yellow, violet, orange), and darker palettes such as black, brown, dark gray, and burgundy.
