Re ortin Guidelines - Charts
Guideline: Not everybody has the same eyesight as you.
Guideline Reasoning
Do not rely on color coding alone Colorblind people as well as blind people cannot recognize the
differenceInstead:
Provide redundant in formation such as titles, descriptions, images
(with descriptions)
Offer font scaling mechanisms People with low visual acuity may need to use larger fonts for
People with good vision may want to scale the font down for smaller
screens, such as 800x600
Use sufficient background-foreground contrastfor text
Low contrast makes reading text harder, especially for people withlow vision
Avoid blue text Visual acuity is only about 1/10 for blue than for other colors;therefore, avoid delicate blue structures, such as small blue text
Avoid certain color combinations for Certain colour combinations should be avoided:
foreground and background Red text on blue background (chromostereopsis the text and the
background are perceived in different depths)Combinations that cannot be differentiated by colour blind users:
red-green, blue-yellow
