Hi Imad,

If you want to apply a default color to the content area check this article and demo: Set Editor Background and Color and Customize Content Area.

If you want to change the pallet colors see this article: Colors.

To programmatically execute the ForeColor or BackColor commands use the fire client-side method:

 editor.fire('ForeColor', { value: "orange" });

Here is an example how to set the forecolor to red when clicking on the ForeColor tool:

<script type="text/javascript">
    function OnClientLoad(editor, args) {
        var foreColor = editor.getToolByName("ForeColor");
        $telerik.$(foreColor.get_element()).click(function () {
            foreColor.set_value('red');
            editor.fire('ForeColor', { value: "red" });
        });
    }

</script>
<telerik:RadEditor runat="server" OnClientLoad="OnClientLoad" ID="RadEditor1">
    <Content>some test content</Content>
</telerik:RadEditor>

Here is another example how to set the default color when start typing in the content area:

<script type="text/javascript">
    function OnClientLoad(editor, args) {
        var element = document.all ? editor.get_document().body : editor.get_document();
        $telerik.addExternalHandler(element, "click", function (e) {
            editor.fire('ForeColor', { value: "red" });
        });
    }
</script>
<telerik:RadEditor runat="server" OnClientLoad="OnClientLoad" ID="RadEditor1">
    <Content>test content</Content>
</telerik:RadEditor>
