Other types of ink such as a fountain pen or roller ball tend to be easier since they are water-based.

Ink is a dye. So when it makes a mark on leather, it's quickly absorbed. If the area is small, you might wait a little while to see if the leather absorbs it eliminating the mark. Because of this natural absorption, many solutions used to dissolve ink stains also affect the color of the leather. So whether you use a home remedy or professional solution, always try a small inconspicuous area before tackling the ink stain.

When dry, apply a small amount of leather polish on the spot, bringing the shine back to the leather.
For remaining spots, dip a cotton swab in rubbing alcohol and treat just the ink stain area by dabbing with the alcohol and cotton swab. Dab with the dry end of the swab to blot up the ink.
