The following is a proposed resolution for Last Call (LC) issue #511: Commenter: Steven Faulkner Context: Success Criterion 1.4.1 Comment: Comment Type: TE Comment (Including rationale for any proposed change): The success criterion refers to "Text or diagrams". From the definiton of "text" in Appendix A:Glossary, it appears that images of text are not included. This can result in web authors using images of text (with a foreground/background luminosity ratio of less than 5:1) to circumvent this Success criterion. Proposed Change: Include an explicit reference to the inclusion of images of text in terms of this success criterion. Proposed Resolution: (accept) Revise SC 1.4.1 and 1.4.3 as follows: [current] 1.4.1 Text or diagrams, and their background, have a luminosity contrast ratio of at least 5:1. 1.4.3 Text or diagrams, and their background, have a luminosity contrast ratio of at least 10:1. [/current] [proposed] 1.4.1 Text, images of text, or diagrams, and their respective backgrounds, have a luminosity contrast ratio of at least 5:1. 1.4.3 Text, images of text, or diagrams, and their respective backgrounds, have a luminosity contrast ratio of at least 10:1.
