What is an acceptable contrast ratio between a foreground and its background?

Is this question about websites or printed materials or just generally? I suspect the answer varies by the type of design. – Computerish Jan 4 '11 at 21:35

In what context? It's all about context. – DA01 Jan 25 '12 at 23:05

If this is for web, I typically use Jonathan Snook's Color Contrast Checker. The safe ratio is about 7.5
Roger Johansson has a nice blog post about varies contrast checking tool, check it out.
