Re: the font sizes at the bottom of the Colour Contrast Checker web page:

Screenshot of example copy.

The headings are "large text - 14pt" and "normal copy - 16px".

WCAG 2.1 defines "large text" as "at least 18 point or 14 point bold". The Understanding Success Criterion page further states that "The ratio between sizes in points and CSS pixels is 1pt = 1.333px, therefore 14pt and 18pt are equivalent to approximately 18.5px and 24px". Since the large text's example copy is not bold, its font size should be 18pt/24px, not 14pt/18.5px.
