Colour accessibility for web graphics and special solutions

Colour blindness affects 1 in 12 men and 1 in 200 women. Therefore, it is important to consider colour contrast ratios when creating graphics – especially if containing text. ETH websites should adhere to the minimum requirements for AA accessibility. The following provides a guide when using ETH corporate colours for graphics. If you are using different colours for your graphics, then be sure to check your colour contrast ratios. This can be done with the external pageWebAIM: Contrast Checker.

Text size legend:
Normal text refers to text that is 12pt (16px) in size.
Large text refers to text that is 14pt (18.67px) or larger.
