If you are using a TrueType font for your dimensions, then you've locked yourself into all of the quirks and liabilities that come with TrueType and a simple fix is probably not in the cards. You might consider using what I will suggest here to change the font first. Then go through the process to change the color.
Hi Woody,
FWIW, I don't think I have ever had an issue using TTF's in general or used as associated dimension text. We use TTF's as plain text and inside MText all the time. We also get dimensions with TTF text from consultant's DWGs and those seem to work just as good as SHX function wise, albeit with a performance hit which can be decent if there is a lot of content onscreen.
