Text display color turns black after applying Font Asset which was expanded in the Project window
How to reproduce:
1. Open the attached "TestFor1055820.zip" project
2. Open the Fonts folder in the Project window
3. Expand any of the Font Assets
4. Assign that Font Asset to the Text gameObject
5. Observe how the Text turns black
Expected result: Text color remains unchanged after assigning the Font Asset
Actual result: Text color turns black after assigning the Font Asset
Reproducible with: 2017.1.4p2, 2017.2.3p1, 2017.4.5f1, 2018.1.6f1, 2018.2.0b11, 2018.3.0a3
Note: reimporting the Font Asset or creating anything in the Project window fixes the issue

1. Make new material
2. Set shader in that material to "UI/Default Font" (without any parameter changes, leave without texture)
doing this, should fix the issue, if not do step 3 or apply individually
3. Apply that new material to every text component (Hierarchy > search > by type > text, select all and apply material)

2021, Unity version 2019.4.16f1, issue still exists. As already mentioned, reimporting the fonts is a suitable workarround, but it is still buggy. Why won't fix?

Nowadays more miracles happening with unity than feature development in our project, all thanks go to the Unity team that they did not specify anything and directly and marked the issues as 'Won't fix'.
It became hard for us to answer, "why it happened and how it was fixed".

This is so annoying its been literally doing this for over 3 years... :[ woNt Fix. The way I get around this is to just use text mesh pro.

For me, the fix was to convert all my existing text to the new Text Mesh Pro version.

1. Disable camera ( just untick it )
2. Enable camera
3. CTRL+S / COMMAND+S
Color will be back to yours. But only until your next action with UI in editor. Usualy this solution helps before you want test play.

Also happened on 2018.4.4f1, maybe after upgrade from 2018.4.3 I didn't notice at first.
The workaround consisting of reimporting the font works well.
