Text that stays readable on Plum Lace

Contrast is measured with the WCAG 2.1 formula, so the pairing a low-vision reader needs is a number here rather than a guess.

Text on background Ratio WCAG
Dark ink on the swatch 5.92:1 AA
White text on the swatch 3.16:1 AA large
The color as text on its lightest tint 2.23:1 Below 3:1
Its deepest shade as text on its lightest tint 7.72:1 AAA

Body text needs 4.5:1 (AA) or 7:1 (AAA); text from 24px, or 19px bold, needs 3:1. Every ratio above is computed from the hex values on this page.
