What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem Ipsum is placeholder text – meaningless dummy copy used to fill a layout so you can judge typography, spacing and hierarchy without being distracted by readable content. Because the words are scrambled Latin, the eye reads them as texture rather than meaning, which is exactly what you want when the design – not the message – is under review. Curious where it comes from? Read the full history of Lorem Ipsum.
Words, sentences or paragraphs – what to choose
- Paragraphs – best for body-copy areas, articles and long text blocks. Reveals line length and rhythm.
- Sentences – ideal for intros, captions, list items and short descriptions.
- Words – perfect for headlines, buttons, labels and tight UI spaces where you need an exact count.
