− | Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's
| |
− | standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a
| |
− | type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting,
| |
− | remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing
| |
− | Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of
| |
− | Lorem Ipsum.</p>

− | It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its
| |
− | layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to
| |
− | using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web
| |
− | page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web
| |
− | sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on
| |
− | purpose (injected humour and the like).</p>

− | Contrary to popular belief, 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. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney
| |
− | College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and
| |
− | going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes
| |
− | from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero,
| |
− | written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first
| |
− | line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.</p>

− | There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some
| |
− | form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a
| |
− | passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the
| |
− | Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true
| |
− | generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence
| |
− | structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from
| |
− | repetition, injected humour, or non-characteristic words etc.</p>
