Frequently Asked Questions
What is the historical origin of Lorem Ipsum? ▼
Lorem Ipsum originated in the 1500s when an unknown printer scrambled parts of Cicero's philosophical text "De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" to create a type specimen book.
Why do designers use dummy text instead of real copy? ▼
Placeholder text prevents reviewers and clients from being distracted by readability or typos, focusing attention purely on visual hierarchy, layout typography, and balance.
Can I generate HTML bulleted list tags directly? ▼
Yes! Select the "HTML Unordered List" option to receive clean <ul><li> markup ready for UI wireframes.
