Yes. There are many of them here.
If you can't find one, I'm sure Ani will be along soon to post her color guide again.

You can now copy from any 'active' text in game and paste into emails, chat, /note, macros.
This is attached to your Windows Clipboard, so you can also copy text out side of the game, then paste it while playing, or copy it into your 'notes' {which is found in your login profile folder contained in the SWG directory} and access ingame via /note.

If you receive a "windows clipboard was null" you either did not bind keys correctly or use the correct keys to copy.
Check your sign or wait for product to be done to see if typing is correct.
*General Color
Color may be applied to structure names, bags/backpacks, basic text, and certain chat.
Basic text includes Emails, descriptions area, bio, and /note.
Chat that may be colored includes auction, vendor barking, AFK reply, reply, guild. Basically everything except spoken chat like yell, say, and shout.

To add color you will need to type \# before the #'s that match the color you want, just before the word(s) you want that color.
Just press \ once! It and the #'s may disappear if done correctly, though not always depending what you are naming.

Here are some basic colors.
Type \# and the corresponding #'s before your words you want colorized.
Remember to use the white code if wanting to return to normal looking text.

For highlighting colored text you may want to ENTER a few times down past your last typed line.
Then begin highlighting from the bottom of the empty lines you just created.
This will allow you to highlight the \ & #s at the beginning of the lines easier.

For chat, place a period (or anything really) before the \ or you will speak the #'s instead of haveing colored chat.
It may take some practice to highlight correctly, and even more to adjust everything to the look you want.
Above all play with it and try out all you can.
