Frequently Asked Questions
What is Lorem Ipsum and why use it?
Lorem Ipsum is scrambled Latin text that has been used as placeholder text in the printing and typesetting industry since the 1500s. It's used in design mockups because it has a natural distribution of letters and word lengths that resembles real text, allowing viewers to focus on the visual design rather than reading actual content. It's become the industry standard for dummy text.
Should I use the classic opening "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"?
It depends on your use case. The classic opening is instantly recognizable to designers and clients, making it clear that the text is placeholder content. This is useful in client presentations or when you want to maintain the traditional Lorem Ipsum look. If you're testing layouts with varied text patterns, you might uncheck this option for more randomized content.
What's the difference between paragraphs, sentences, and words?
Paragraphs generate complete blocks of text with multiple sentences, perfect for filling large content areas like blog posts or articles. Sentences generate individual sentences, useful for shorter sections like captions or descriptions. Words generate individual words, giving you precise control for testing character limits or specific text lengths. Choose based on how much content you need and how it will be structured.
Can I use Lorem Ipsum in production websites?
Lorem Ipsum should only be used during the design and development phase as placeholder text. Before launching a website or product, always replace Lorem Ipsum with real, meaningful content. Search engines may penalize sites with dummy text, and users will have a poor experience if they encounter placeholder content. Use Lorem Ipsum for mockups, prototypes, and testing only.
