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. 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). 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.
