Important Questions
That’s not so bad, there’s dummy copy to the rescue. But worse, what if the fish doesn’t fit in the can, the foot’s 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.
Our Surgical Facilities
- Designs to be filled with real words, with thoughts that count, information
- Usually, we prefer the real thing, wine without sulfur
- Based preservatives, real butter, not margarine, and so we'd like our layouts
- Even if your less into design and more into content strategy
- There are some redeeming factors in favor of greeking text
- Authorities in our business will tell in no uncertain terms that
- It's unreal, uncanny, makes you wonder if something is wrong
- Anyway, you still use Lorem Ipsum and rightly so

That’s not so bad, there’s dummy copy to the rescue. But worse, what if the fish doesn’t fit in the can, the foot’s 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’t quite tell right now, but they’re unhappy, somehow. A client that’s unhappy for a reason is a problem, a client that’s unhappy though he or her can’t quite put a finger on it is worse.

Different Methods
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.
Rigid proponents of content strategy may shun the use of dummy copy but then designers might want to ask them to provide style sheets with the copy decks they supply that are in tune with the design direction they require.
