]]> Lorem ipsum is a place holder text. Publishers and graphic designers need it every day in almost every task. Lorem ipsum is commonly used to demonstrate the visual presentation of fonts, typography or layout. An example of lorem ipsum paragraph is below:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.

What if you need lorem ipsum ready to use in different forms. e.g. lorem ipsum long paragraph, lorem ipsum medium paragraph, lorem ipsum one sentence, lorem ipsum ordered lists, lorem ipsum unordered lists, lorem ipsum form, lorem ipsum definition list, lorem ipsum navigation and more?

HTML Ipsum is a resource that offers ready to use Lorem Ipsum text in many forms. If you do not know HTML and want to use HTML elements, then this is a handy site for that as well. HTML Ipsum will make adding tables, ordered lists, and more headache-free. Find the HTML you’re after, copy and paste it into your HTML editor, and replace the text with your own. No sign-up, invite-requesting, tweeting or liking required. Just head to the site and use it.

Now using javascript we can use any font in web page by using techniques such as Typeface and Facelift Image Replacement (or FLIR) or sIFR. sIFR needs flash while others do not. sIFR is for smoothness look of fonts.

Instead of creating images or using flash just to show your site’s graphic text in the font you want, you can use typeface.js and write in plain HTML and CSS and get original smooth font look whatever you specify, even if the user machine have not those fonts. This technique is limited yet with limited fonts support and also it is recommended to use it for title of headings of web page. All the font at the web page using this technique can heavy things up at server and page might load very slow. Even then it is cool. Type face is easy, flexible and open source.

Using FLIR to display any font in web page is even easy. Here they have got complete instructions for just that.

I have tried type face method and here is its example to download.

You may have noticed that in professional flash websites they use very fine and clear fonts. What most people do, they just take text tool in flash and write a static text which will probably not be so clear in looks. Follow this rule to use clear style fonts in flash.

I suggest you something.

Never take static text :)
Instead take Dynamic text.
Tahoma 10 for normal text.
Click <> sign for render text as html.
See the result and that will be very exact clear text as than before.
