Body text at this size
And the smaller size most interfaces actually use for paragraphs — the size that decides whether a pair is usable.
Caption text, which almost nothing passes.
WCAG 2.1
7.01:1
Passes AA for body text
AAA too. Swapping the two colours gives the same number — the ratio does not know which is the text.
APCA
Lc 60.5
Clears Lc 60 — headlines and other larger text.
Dark text on a lighter ground.
Colour difference
ΔE00 60.1
different colours
Above 10 — related only in the sense that both are colours.
Nothing to fix
This pair already clears 4.5:1, so #322c2b can stay exactly as it is. Check another pair.
And to someone missing a cone
protanopia
Ratio 7.14:1, ΔE00 59.6.
deuteranopia
Ratio 6.94:1, ΔE00 58.5.
tritanopia
Ratio 6.98:1, ΔE00 55.2.
The weakest of the three is tritanopia, where the two are ΔE00 55.2 apart against 60.1 for a trichromat — still clearly two colours.
