Frequently asked questions
Where does lorem ipsum come from?
It is scrambled Latin derived from “De finibus bonorum et malorum”, written by Cicero in 45 BC. Printers have used it as dummy text since the 1500s.
Why use placeholder text instead of real text?
It lets people judge a layout’s look without being distracted by reading the words, and it has a natural-looking mix of word lengths.
