Richard McClintock, a Latin scholar from Hampden-Sydney College, is credited<\/a> with discovering the source behind the ubiquitous filler text. In seeing a sample of lorem ipsum<\/em>, his interest was piqued by consectetur<\/em>\u2014a genuine, albeit rare, Latin word. Consulting a Latin dictionary led McClintock to a passage from De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum<\/em> (\u201cOn the Extremes of Good and Evil\u201d), a first-century B.C. text from the Roman philosopher Cicero.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In particular, the garbled words of lorem ipsum<\/em> bear an unmistakable resemblance to sections 1.10.32\u201333 of Cicero’s work, with the most notable passage excerpted below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cNeque porro quisquam est, qui dolorem ipsum<\/em> quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit, sed<\/em> quia non numquam eius modi tempora incidunt ut labore et dolore magnam aliquam quaerat voluptatem.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

A 1914 English translation by Harris Rackham<\/a> reads:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cNor is there anyone who loves or pursues or desires to obtain pain of itself, because it is pain, but occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain can procure him some great pleasure.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

McClintock’s eye for detail certainly helped narrow the whereabouts of lorem ipsum’s<\/em> origin, however, the \u201chow and when\u201d still remain something of a mystery, with competing theories and timelines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Until recently, the prevailing view assumed lorem ipsum<\/em> was born as a nonsense text. \u201cIt’s not Latin, though it looks like it, and it actually says nothing,\u201d Before & After<\/em> magazine answered a curious reader<\/a>, \u201cIts \u2018words\u2019 loosely approximate the frequency with which letters occur in English, which is why at a glance it looks pretty real.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As Cicero would put it, \u201cUm, not so fast.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The placeholder text, beginning with the line \u201cLorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit\u201d<\/em>, looks like Latin because in its youth, centuries ago, it was Latin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lorem ipsum<\/em>, or lipsum<\/em> as it is sometimes known, is dummy text used in laying out print, graphic or web designs. The passage is attributed to an unknown typesetter in the 15th century who is thought to have scrambled parts of Cicero’s De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum<\/em> for use in a type specimen book. It usually begins with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cLorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The purpose of lorem ipsum<\/em> is to create a natural looking block of text (sentence, paragraph, page, etc.) that doesn’t distract from the layout. A practice not without controversy<\/a>, laying out pages with meaningless filler text can be very useful when the focus is meant to be on design, not content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The passage experienced a surge in popularity during the 1960s when Letraset used it on their dry-transfer sheets, and again during the 90s as desktop publishers bundled the text with their software. Today it’s seen all around the web; on templates, websites, and stock designs.
