Usually it’s a bunch of different string hashes of the text content. They could be different hashing algorithms, but it’s more common to take a single hash algorithm and simply create a bunch of hash functions that operate on different parts of the data.

If it’s not text data, there’s a whole bunch of other hashing strategies but I only ever saw bloom filters used with text.
