If the copy becomes distracting in the design then you are doing something wrong or they are discussing copy changes. It might be a bit annoying but you could tell them that that discussion would be best suited for another time. At worst the discussion is at least working towards the final goal of your site where questions about lorem ipsum don\u2019t. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\nThe wise man therefore always holds in these matters to this principle of selection: he rejects pleasures to secure other greater pleasures, or else he endures pains to avoid worse pains. Most text editors like MS Word or Lotus Notes generate random lorem text<\/strong> when needed, either as pre-installed module or plug-in to be added. Word selection or sequence don\u2019t necessarily match the original, which is intended to add variety.\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\nChances are there wasn’t collaboration, communication, and checkpoints, there wasn’t a process agreed upon or specified with the granularity required. It’s content strategy gone awry right from the start. Forswearing the use of Lorem Ipsum wouldn’t have helped, won’t help now. It’s like saying you’re a bad designer, use less bold text, don’t use italics in every other paragraph. True enough, but that’s not all that it takes to get things back on track.\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\nThat\u2019s what is Lorem Ipsum to many\u2014it rubs them the wrong way, all the way. It\u2019s unreal, uncanny, makes you wonder if something is wrong, it seems to seek your attention for all the wrong reasons. Usually, we prefer the real thing, wine without sulfur based preservatives, real butter, not margarine, and so we\u2019d like our layouts and designs to be filled with real words, with thoughts that count, information.\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You trade in your sense for an act. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask. There can\u2019t be any large-scale revolution until there\u2019s a personal revolution, on an individual level. It\u2019s got to happen inside first.<\/em> <\/p> Jim Morrison<\/em> <\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n\nThe toppings you may chose for that TV dinner pizza slice when you forgot to shop for foods, the paint you may slap on your face to impress the new boss is your business. But what about your daily bread? Design comps, layouts, wireframes\u2014will your clients accept that you go about things the facile way? Authorities in our business will tell in no uncertain terms that Lorem Ipsum is that huge.\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\nYou begin with a text, you sculpt information, you chisel away what\u2019s not needed, you come to the point, make things clear, add value, you\u2019re a content person, you like words. Anyway, you still use Lorem Ipsum and rightly so, as it will always have a place in the web workers toolbox, as things happen, not always the way you like it, not always in the preferred order. Even if your less into design and more into content strategy you may find some redeeming value with, wait for it, dummy copy, no less talking about creating a user experience .\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Then the question arises: where\u2019s the content? Not there yet? That\u2019s not so bad, there\u2019s dummy copy to the rescue. But worse, what if the fish doesn\u2019t fit in the can, the foot\u2019s to big for the boot? Or to small? To short sentences, to many headings, images too large for the proposed design, or too small, or they fit in but it looks iffy for reasons the folks in the meeting can\u2019t quite tell right now, but they\u2019re unhappy, somehow. A client that\u2019s unhappy for a reason is a problem, a client that\u2019s unhappy though he or her can\u2019t quite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\nIf that\u2019s what you think how bout the other way around? How can you evaluate content without design? No typography, no colors, no layout, no styles, all those things that convey the important signals that go beyond the mere textual, hierarchies of information, weight, emphasis, oblique stresses, priorities, all those subtle cues that also have visual and emotional appeal to the reader. \n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
