History and background

History of Lorem Ipsum text - From Cicero to modern web design

Lorem Ipsum has its roots in classical Roman philosophy. The original text comes from "De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (On the Ends of Good and Evil) which the Roman philosopher and statesman Marcus Tullius Cicero wrote in 45 BC. This work is a treatise on ethics and moral theory.

The standard Lorem Ipsum passage used since the 1500s reads: "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua." This is actually an altered and shortened version of Cicero's original text from Section 1.10.32.

How did Lorem Ipsum enter the printing industry?

It is believed that an unknown printer in the 16th century took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. This text survived five centuries and the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s when Letraset released sheets with Lorem Ipsum passages, and then again in the 1980s with software like Aldus PageMaker which included versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Why is it used in web design?

In modern web design, Lorem Ipsum serves as standard placeholder text that helps designers and developers visualize how a page will look with real content. It is used in wireframes, mockups, prototypes, and during site development. On BeoHosting hosting plans you can host sites developed with the help of this tool.

Frequently asked questions - Lorem Ipsum Generator

Answers to the most common questions about our services.

Lorem Ipsum is dummy (placeholder) text used in the printing and graphics industry since the 1500s. It is based on the work "De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by the Roman philosopher Cicero from 45 BC. It is used as a substitute for real content during the design and development of websites, brochures, presentations, and other visual materials.

Lorem Ipsum is used because it has a relatively normal letter distribution, making it visually similar to real text. Unlike text like "Content here" that repeats, Lorem Ipsum does not distract attention from design and layout. Designers and developers can thus focus on the visual aspect of the project without being distracted by content.

No — Lorem Ipsum is exclusively placeholder text intended for the design and development phase. Before launching your site or print material, always replace Lorem Ipsum with real content. Google may penalize sites that have placeholder text in production because it indicates low-quality or unfinished content.

It depends on the page type. For a hero section, 1 paragraph of 20-30 words is usually enough. For a blog post or content page, 3-5 paragraphs per section gives a realistic view. For long pages with multiple sections, generate 10-15 paragraphs. The key is for placeholder text to reflect the approximate length of the final content.

No. All text is generated locally in your browser using JavaScript. Nothing is sent to the server or stored in a database. You can also use the tool offline after the page loads. Your data is completely private and secure.
