How do I change the form field font color?

I found a discussion on this but it was over a year old and not for forms 2.0 so Im hoping there's an easier answer (the answer there required HTML knowledge - yuck!). 

I need to change the form field font to match our website. As it is, Marketo does not have the font we need (is there a way to import custom fonts if we own them?), but I need to adjust to as close as possible and change the color. I see easily how to change the field font type but dont see any place to adjust the color of the form field label. Possible? If so, how do you do it?

When you edit the label, it opens up an HTML editor, so you can just change the color there.

I dont see any HTML editor opening. There is a sidebar for options label width, field width etc. but no html or color or font style option fields.

In the sidebar, if you click on the pencil next to Label, it will open the HTML editor.

Ok then what? Who knows HTML? I dont!

You can change the font color and font right at the top... if the color you want isn't there but you know the code, you can use this in the HTML editor: <p><span style="color: #00ff00;">First Name:</span></p> 

In the code above, you'll need to replace the #00ff00 with your color, and First Name: with the field label that you want.

Here's a simple tool to find the code for a color on an image: http://html-color-codes.info/colors-from-image/
