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
6.25:1
Passes AA for body text
Not AAA (7:1). Swapping the two colours gives the same number — the ratio does not know which is the text.
APCA
Lc -72.0
Clears Lc 60 — headlines and other larger text.
Light text on a darker ground — the negative sign is the polarity.
Colour difference
ΔE00 51.6
different colours
Above 10 — related only in the sense that both are colours.
Nothing to fix
This pair already clears 4.5:1, so #e7dcce can stay exactly as it is. Check another pair.
And to someone missing a cone
protanopia
Ratio 5.95:1, ΔE00 47.0.
deuteranopia
Ratio 6.42:1, ΔE00 49.2.
tritanopia
Ratio 6.33:1, ΔE00 64.2.
The weakest of the three is protanopia, where the two are ΔE00 47.0 apart against 51.6 for a trichromat — still clearly two colours.
