Frequently asked questions
Why is it called "Lorem Ipsum"?
It's derived from a scrambled passage of Cicero's "De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum," a Latin text from 45 BC. It's been used as filler text in printing and design since the 1500s specifically because it looks like real language without being distractingly readable.
Why use placeholder text instead of real content?
It lets you judge layout, typography, and spacing without the specific wording of real content influencing your eye — readable-but-meaningless text keeps the focus on the design itself.
