Open Text & content toolsAbout Lorem Ipsum
Lorem Ipsum has been the printing industry's standard dummy text since the 1500s. Designers use it when the final copy isn't ready so viewers can focus on layout rather than readable content.
Why Designers Use Lorem Ipsum
When presenting a design mockup or prototype, real text can be distracting — clients and stakeholders start editing the words instead of evaluating the layout. Lorem Ipsum solves this by providing text that looks natural at a glance but is meaningless to readers, keeping attention on spacing, typography, and visual hierarchy.
Origin of Lorem Ipsum
Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random Latin. It is derived from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (On the Ends of Good and Evil) by the Roman philosopher Cicero, written in 45 BC. The standard Lorem Ipsum passage used since the 1500s begins with "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..." — a scrambled and altered excerpt from the original text.
When Not to Use Lorem Ipsum
For content-heavy applications like news sites, e-commerce product pages, or dashboards, always test with realistic content as early as possible. Different word lengths and paragraph structures can significantly affect layout behavior, especially on mobile screens.
Better placeholder workflow
Use placeholder text early in wireframes, then replace it with realistic copy before design sign-off. That second step matters for SEO and content UX because real headings, slug choices, and paragraph lengths often reveal layout problems that filler text hides.
