The Story Behind Lorem Ipsum
Origins of the Famous Placeholder
Lorem Ipsum has been the printing and typesetting industry's standard dummy text since the 1500s, when an unknown printer scrambled a galley of type to create a specimen book. Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text—it has roots in classical Latin literature from 45 BC.
The text comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, a treatise on the theory of ethics that was very popular during the Renaissance.
— There is no one who loves pain itself, who seeks after it and wants to have it, simply because it is pain.
Why Designers Use Lorem Ipsum
- Neutral content – Prevents design feedback being derailed by content discussions
- Natural distribution – The text has a roughly normal distribution of letters and word lengths
- Industry standard – Universally recognized, so clients understand it's placeholder
- Historical charm – Over 500 years of design heritage
Best Practices for Using Placeholder Text
When using Lorem Ipsum, try to match the approximate length and structure of the final content. If headlines will be short, use short placeholder headlines. Always replace placeholder text before launching—accidentally published Lorem Ipsum is a common oversight.
