As an alternative theory, (and because Latin scholars do this sort of thing) someone tracked down a 1914 Latin edition of De Finibus which challenges McClintock\u2019s 15th century claims and suggests that the dawn of lorem ipsum was as recent as the 20th century. The 1914 Loeb Classical Library Edition ran out of room on page 34 for the Latin phrase \u201cdolorem ipsum\u201d (sorrow in itself). Thus, the truncated phrase leaves one page dangling with \u201cdo-\u201d, while another begins with the now ubiquitous lorem ipsum. Been either fished for, or wished.<\/p>

Controversy in the Design World<\/span><\/h4>

Whether a medieval typesetter chose to garble a well-known (but non-Biblical\u2014that would have been sacrilegious) text, or whether a quirk in the 1914 Loeb Edition inspired a graphic designer, it\u2019s admittedly an odd way.<\/p>

One brave soul did take a stab at translating the almost-not-quite-Latin. You don\u2019t want them wondering why you filled their website with a foreign language, and you certainly don\u2019t want anyone prematurely publishing it.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

So when is it okay to use lorem ipsum? First, lorem ipsum works well for staging. It\u2019s like the props in a furniture store\u2014filler text makes it look like someone is home. The same WordPress template might eventually be home to a fitness blog, a photography website, or the online journal of a cupcake fanatic. Lorem ipsum helps them imagine what the lived-in website.<\/p>

Usage and Examples<\/span><\/h4>

One word of caution: make sure your client knows that lorem ipsum is filler text. You don\u2019t want them wondering why you filled their website with a foreign language, and you certainly don\u2019t want anyone prematurely publishing it.<\/div><\/div><\/div>

    Second, use\u00a0lorem ipsum\u00a0if you think the placeholder text will be too distracting. For specific projects, collaboration between copywriters and designers may be best, however, like Karen McGrane said, draft copy has a way of turning any meeting about layout decisions into a discussion about word choice. So don\u2019t be afraid to use\u00a0lorem ipsum\u00a0to keep everyone focused.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
