What is Lorem Ipsum?
The Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text used in typesetting and layout before printing. Lorem Ipsum has been the standard dummy text of printing ever since the 1500s, when an anonymous printer scrambled scraps of text to make a type specimen book. It has not only survived five centuries, but has also adapted to computer office automation, without its content being modified. It was popularized in the 1960s with the sale of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with its inclusion in text layout applications, such as Aldus PageMaker.
Why use it?
It has long been known that working with readable, meaningful text is distracting and prevents you from concentrating on the layout itself. The advantage of Lorem Ipsum over generic text like ‘Text. Of text. Text.’ is that it has a more or less normal distribution of letters, and in any case comparable with that of standard French. Many layout software suites or website editors have made Lorem Ipsum their default dummy text, and a search for 'Lorem Ipsum' will take you to many sites which are still in their development phase. construction. Several versions have appeared over time, sometimes by accident, often intentionally (just to add little winks, or even embarrassing sentences).
