Greek

1. <text, graphics> To display text as abstract dots and lines in order to give a preview of layout without actually being legible.

This is faster than drawing the characters correctly which may require scaling or other transformations.

Greeking is particularly useful when displaying a reduced image of a document where the text would be too small to be legible on the display anyway.

2. lorem ipsum.
