Frequently asked questions
- Where does lorem ipsum come from?
- It is scrambled Latin taken from a first-century BC text by Cicero, on the theory of ethics. Typesetters have used it as filler since the sixteenth century.
- Why not just use real text as a placeholder?
- Because readable copy pulls attention to the words instead of the layout. Nonsense Latin has roughly the right letter distribution and word lengths, so it looks like text without inviting anyone to read it.
- Should placeholder text ever reach production?
- No, and it does more often than you would think. Search for lorem ipsum on any large site and you will usually find some. Treat it as a build-time-only artefact.
- Does it always start with the same words?
- Traditionally yes, since the familiar opening signals immediately that the text is filler. You can turn that off here if you want a fully random sample instead.
