What is lorem ipsum?
Lorem ipsum is scrambled Latin text derived from Cicero’s De finibus bonorum et malorum (45 BC). Designers have used it since the 1500s as filler text because it looks like natural language without distracting readers with meaningful content.
When to use real content instead
Placeholder text is great for early layouts, but test with real content before launch: real headlines and paragraphs are often longer or shorter than expected and can break a design.
Frequently asked questions
Is the text random every time?
Yes. Sentences are built randomly from the classic lorem ipsum vocabulary, so each click produces new text.
