Hi tinfanide,

Changing the font colour in the template won't affect any existing documents unless they're configured with the 'automatically update document styles' option (Developer|Document Template|Templates).

Of course, if you change the font colour in the template, all new documents based on that template (but not documents based on a different template) will be affected.
