As nonsense (not actual Latin), the text is not italicized. The text often begins as, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit". Substituting this dummy text for meaningful content should not be confused with "greeking".

Even though using "lorem ipsum" often arouses curiosity because of its resemblance to classical

Latin

, it is not intended to have meaning. Where text is visible in a document, people tend to focus on the textual content rather than upon overall presentation, so publishers use

lorem ipsum

when displaying a

typeface

or design elements and page layout in order to direct the focus to the publication style and not the meaning of the text.
