Is #ecaaa2 suitable for text on a white background?
#ecaaa2 is generally too light to meet WCAG accessibility standards for normal-sized text when placed directly over a white background. It functions much better as a primary background color or as an accent element paired with dark, high-contrast text.
Is #ecaaa2 readable on white or black?
#ecaaa2 has a 1.93:1 contrast ratio on white and 10.83:1 on black. WCAG asks for 4.5:1 for body text and 3:1 for large text, so on white it is too faint for text and on black it works for body text. Try other pairs in the contrast checker.
