Can you reproduce this with the release version 68.7? If not perhaps raise an appropriate bug.
Was using Beta (about build 75) before switching to Daily. This was not an issue in 75.0bx. I did submit a bug report. The symptoms say the problem is in the profile (same code - one profile works, another doesn't). But there are other symptoms that make me wonder. The old profile is a mess - accumulated over xx years and full of junk. Next step is to attempt to clean it.
You did not mention whether the problem profile is using system colours or has an override setting.
- Menu app icon > Options > Options >Display > 'Formatting' tab
- click on 'Colours' button
- Uncheck 'Use system colours'
Override the colours specified by the content with my selections above:
- Choose: 'Only with high contrast themes' or 'Never'
- click on 'OK'

In Daily 2020-04-17 and etc., this option is under Format and then Page Colors and Background. It doesn't matter which one is selected: Reader's default colors or Use Custom Colors The effect is the same - select a foreground color, the foreground color indicator box changes, type any character, the character appears black and the color indicator box changes to black.
