“Lorem ipsum” is a placeholder text commonly used in graphic design, publishing, and web development to fill spaces in a layout when the final content is not yet available. This pseudo-Latin text allows designers and typographers to focus on visual elements without the distraction of meaningful content.
The origins of “Lorem ipsum” trace back to a scrambled version of a passage from “De finibus bonorum et malorum,” a 1st-century BC text by the Roman philosopher Cicero. An unknown typesetter in the 15th century is believed to have jumbled parts of this work to create a type specimen book.
The text gained popularity in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets featuring “Lorem ipsum” passages, and its use continued with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker.
A standard excerpt of “Lorem ipsum” reads:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
This filler text is valuable for assessing the visual aspects of a design, such as font choice, layout, and overall aesthetics, without the influence of actual content.
