Until recently, the prevailing view assumed lorem ipsum was born as a nonsense text. It’s not Latin, though it looks like it, and it actually says nothing Before & After magazine answered a curious reader, Its words loosely approximate the frequency with which letters occur in English, difficult to find examples of lorem ipsum which is why at a glance it looks pretty real. As Cicero would put it, “Um, not so fast.”
And anyways, as Cecil Adams reasoned Do you really think graphic arts supply houses were hiring classics scholars in the 1960s Perhaps.

Richard McClintock, a Latin scholar from Hampden-Sydney College, is credited with discovering the source behind the ubiquitous filler text. In seeing a sample of lorem ipsum, his interest was piqued by consectetur—a genuine, albeit rare, Latin word. Consulting a Latin dictionary led McClintock to a passage from De difficult to find examples of lorem ipsum Finibus Bonorum et Malorum a first-century B.C.

Event Summary
So how did the classical Latin become so incoherent? According to McClintock, a 15th century typesetter likely scrambled part of Cicero’s De Finibus in order to provide placeholder text to mockup various fonts for a type specimen book.
It’s difficult to find examples of lorem ipsum in use before Letraset made it popular as a dummy text in the 1960s, although McClintock says he remembers coming across the lorem ipsum passage in a book of old metal type samples. So far he hasn’t relocated where he once saw the passage but the popularity of Cicero in the 15th century supports the theory that the filler text difficult to find examples.
