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 new web sites. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like). Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and publishing industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of randomly drawn letters and made a type guide. Five centuries have not lost its shape, and it is still used in its original form in printing and electronic typesetting. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with publishing software like Aldus PageMaker, which also includes versions of Lorem Ipsum. 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. Whereas all the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat chunks of Lorem Ipsum as necessary, ours 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 free from repetition, injected punctuation, or anything like that. This makes it the first true Lorem Ipsum generator on the Internet.
