Lorem Ipsum is sample text commonly used to demonstrate the visual form of documents. It originated from scrambled Latin text in the 1500s and has been used in publishing and graphic design as placeholder text. The standard passage has survived for over 500 years and remains in widespread use today. Lorem Ipsum text maintains a similar distribution of letters and appearance to real text, making it suitable for previewing various font and layout designs without relying on meaningful content that could be distracting.

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem
Why do we use it? It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
Where does it come from? Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance.
