What is Lorem Ipsum?

Lorem Ipsum is placeholder text used in the design and publishing industries since the 1500s. It provides a natural-looking distribution of letters and words that mimics real content without distracting readers with meaningful text.

The text is derived from “De finibus bonorum et malorum” (On the Ends of Good and Evil), a philosophical work by Cicero written in 45 BC. The standard Lorem Ipsum passage used since the 1500s is a scrambled excerpt from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33.

Why use placeholder text?

Focus on design - Meaningful content draws attention away from layout, typography, and visual hierarchy. Lorem Ipsum lets reviewers evaluate design without reading.

Realistic appearance - Unlike repeating “content here” or keyboard mashing, Lorem Ipsum has natural word length distribution and letter frequency, giving an accurate preview of how real text will look.

Neutral content - Placeholder text doesn’t introduce bias or controversy. It’s universally understood to be temporary.

Standard practice - Lorem Ipsum is instantly recognisable to designers, developers, and clients as placeholder content that will be replaced.

When to avoid Lorem Ipsum

Content-first design - When content structure significantly affects design decisions, real content (or realistic approximations) produces better results.

User testing - Participants may be confused by Latin text. Use realistic placeholder content for usability testing.

Accessibility reviews - Screen readers will attempt to pronounce Lorem Ipsum as Latin, creating a poor experience. Use meaningful placeholder text when testing accessibility.

Final client reviews - Clients may not understand that Lorem Ipsum indicates missing content. Be explicit about what’s placeholder.

Alternatives to Lorem Ipsum

Hipster Ipsum - Trendy placeholder text with artisanal vocabulary.

Bacon Ipsum - Meat-themed placeholder text for the carnivorous.

Cupcake Ipsum - Sweet dessert-themed filler text.

Corporate Ipsum - Business jargon that mimics enterprise content.

Real content - When possible, use actual content from similar pages or draft copy.

The standard Lorem Ipsum passage

The most common Lorem Ipsum passage begins:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.

This text has been the industry standard since the 1960s when Letraset released transfer sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and later when desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker included it as default placeholder text.
