Live specimen

Almost before we knew it

The pair at the sizes real interface text gets used — a heading, a line of body copy, and a button. If all three hold up here, the pair works.

Color-blind view

Contrast is a luminance ratio, and color blindness keeps luminance — so it barely moves below. What moves is distinguishability: how far apart the two colors stay (ΔE). That is the number to watch, and why this section exists. You can publish any of these as its own pair.

Color & contrast

Published contrast 18.05:1 — passes AA at any text size.

B clears AA on A as published — the interface uses it uncorrected.

Dim / secondary text sits at 6.25:1.

The pair exactly as published, at the size you drag to. AA needs 4.5:1 for body, 3:1 at large sizes (24px+).

On screen vs on paper

A backlit display flatters a pair; paper doesn't. Warm stock instead of #FFFFFF, a smaller gamut, lower contrast — this is where the verdict often changes.

On paper — approximate

An approximation of warm stock, reduced gamut and lower contrast — not a color-managed proof, and no claim about a specific press. For signage at distance, shrink the specimen with the size slider above.
