Hi there,

All developers will use "placeholder text" when designing. This text is generally referred to as Lorem Ipsum Text and is the same as using Placeholder Images.
You'll use this when designing to get a feel of the layout.

There are probably 100s of different and interesting Lorem Ipsum sites. You can have everything from "Bacon Ipsum" to "Dessert Ipsum" to "Animal Ipsum". A simple Google search will produce some pretty neat Ipsum generators.

Hope that clears it up for you.

:) :dizzy:
