Frequently Asked Questions
What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem Ipsum is placeholder text used in design and publishing. The standard version begins with "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet" and is derived from a 45 BC work by Cicero. It has been used as placeholder text since the 1500s.
Why use Lorem Ipsum instead of real text?
Placeholder text allows designers and developers to build layouts without waiting for final copy. It also prevents readers from being distracted by the meaning of the text when evaluating a design.
Is Lorem Ipsum real Latin?
It is based on real Latin from Cicero's de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum, but the standard Lorem Ipsum passage is scrambled and deliberately meaningless so it does not distract from the design.
