The Typewriter tool is like the Text Box tool, but includes a different set of default properties. The Typewriter tool provides a simple solution for filling out such forms. Organizations sometimes provide PDF versions of their paper forms without interactive form fields. Use the Typewriter tool to type text anywhere on a PDF page.

Anyway, I suspect that the opacity of the courier font has been changed from its original setting of 100% (pure black) to something less resulting in a "fading" of the text.

Some users have stated their typewriter text was originally black, but now is purple, or in some cases red like yours. The problem you are experiencing "might" not be a text color problem, but instead an opacity condition. How can I change it back to black?Thanks!
