Lorem Ipsum: usage

Lorem ipsum is a pseudo-Latin text used in web design, typography, layout, and printing in place of English to emphasise design elements over content. It's also called placeholder (or filler) text. It's a convenient tool for mock-ups. It helps to outline the visual elements of a document or presentation, eg typography, font, or layout. Lorem ipsum is mostly a part of a Latin text by the classical author and philosopher Cicero. Its words and letters have been changed by addition or removal, so to deliberately render its content nonsensical; it's not genuine, correct, or comprehensible Latin anymore. While lorem ipsum's still resembles classical Latin, it actually has no meaning whatsoever. As Cicero's text doesn't contain the letters K, W, or Z, alien to latin, these, and others are often inserted randomly to mimic the typographic appearence of European languages, as are digraphs not to be found in the original.

In a professional context it often happens that private or corporate clients corder a publication to be made and presented with the actual content still not being ready. Think of a news blog that's filled with content hourly on the day of going live. However, reviewers tend to be distracted by comprehensible content, say, a random text copied from a newspaper or the internet. The are likely to focus on the text, disregarding the layout and its elements. Besides, random text risks to be unintendedly humorous or offensive, an unacceptable risk in corporate environments. Lorem ipsum and its many variants have been employed since the early 1960ies, and quite likely since the sixteenth century.

Lorem Ipsum: common examples

Most of its text is made up from sections 1.10.32–3 of Cicero's De finibus bonorum et malorum (On the Boundaries of Goods and Evils; finibus may also be translated as purposes). Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit is the first known version ("Neither is there anyone who loves grief itself since it is grief and thus wants to obtain it"). It was found by Richard McClintock, a philologist, director of publications at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia; he searched for citings of consectetur in classical Latin literature, a term of remarkably low frequency in that literary corpus.

Cicero famously orated against his political opponent Lucius Sergius Catilina. Occasionally the first Oration against Catiline is taken for type specimens: Quo usque tandem abutere, Catilina, patientia nostra? Quam diu etiam furor iste tuus nos eludet? (How long, O Catiline, will you abuse our patience? And for how long will that madness of yours mock us?)

Cicero's version of Liber Primus (first Book), sections 1.10.32–3 (fragments included in most Lorem Ipsum variants in red):

Sed ut perspiciatis, unde omnis iste natus error sit voluptatem accusantium doloremque laudantium, totam rem aperiam eaque ipsa, quae ab illo inventore veritatis et quasi architecto beatae vitae dicta sunt, explicabo. Nemo enim ipsam voluptatem, quia voluptas sit, aspernatur aut odit aut fugit, sed quia consequuntur magni dolores eos, qui ratione voluptatem sequi nesciunt, neque porro quisquam est, qui dolorem ipsum, quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci[ng] velit, sed quia non numquam [do] eius modi tempora inci[di]dunt, ut labore et dolore magnam aliquamquaerat voluptatem. Ut enim ad minima veniam, quis nostrum exercitationem ullam corporis suscipit laboriosam, nisi ut aliquid ex ea commodi consequatur? Quis autem vel eum iure reprehenderit, qui in ea voluptate velit esse, quam nihil molestiae consequatur, vel illum, qui dolorem eum fugiat, quo voluptas nulla pariatur?

Dummy text, fake text, placeholder text... why make it look nice?

In short...The Fairly Random text generator generates realistic seeming random text from any given source text. To do this it analyzes a source text that you provide. It measures overall word length and frequency, and lets you review the individual words of the original text. It also immediately creates a random text based on your source text. If you want, you can then use the various options to tell the text generator which of the words to use (or not to use) and what the resulting text should look like (in terms of sentences, paragraphs, headers et cetera).

In other words, your input and settings determine the flavor of the output, which is, as such, a rewrite of your source text into not really random text.

Dummy text, fake text, placeholder text... why make it look nice?While random text is mostly intended to just fill up the blank spaces, for many practical purposes you essentially want the look and feel of the dummy text you are going to use to be as close as possible to the real content that will eventually replace it. Considering that different language, writing style and substance of text result in an endless variety of different word combinations and visual impressions that a piece of text can have and make, it is always a plus to have it use the right kind of words and look like the final product as much as possible. Whether you are working in the technical, lifestyle, news or fantasy business, you will always impress and fascinate by having your concept pieces look and feel like they are the real technical, lifestyle, news or fantasy deal... to name but a few examples.

On a sidenote...You might be surprised how much mood or athmosphere even a totally random text can carry, while a fairly random text does this better ofcourse ;-). Granted, when you really get down to reading it, there won't be much meaningful coherence in any of it, but... regardless of the fact that random text makes no real sense, it does automatically get your mind working. Your brain will in fact try hard to understand it anyway, because out of habit it assumes that words in a text should mean something, or at least anything but nothing! You see, the brain launches itself into ‘I-must-understand-this’ mode when confronted with random text, trying every possible way in which it could still extract some sensible meaning from those random words, much like trying to solve a puzzle. Just try it. Reading random text for a few minutes, word for word, is very tiring. On the upside, reading a little bit, or just skimming over a random text like most people will do, makes your mind strongly touch upon a certain global idea of “subject matter” without its focus getting diverted by any actual meaningful details, while what the random text does do is automatically fill the readers mind with questions at the same time. The more your strongly your source text is written on a specific subject and uses a specific group of words, the stronger this effect will be. And this is exactly what you want your Fairly Random text to accomplish: it is there to provide a general mood, to hook interest and to look like the real thing.
