The History of Lorem Ipsum

Origins in Cicero

Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. It comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero.

Why use Placeholder Text?

Using placeholder text is essential in UI/UX design because it prevents the viewer from being distracted by readable content, allowing them to focus entirely on the visual layout and typographic hierarchy of the page.
