FAQ
- What is the difference between WCAG 2.x and APCA?
- WCAG 2.x uses a simple math ratio independent of color positions, whereas APCA respects human eye response to light vs dark polarities, making it more accurate.
- What is a passing APCA score?
- An Lc of 75+ is recommended for standard body text. Lc 60+ is acceptable for larger/bold text, and Lc 45+ fits large headers or UI frames.
