Overview

What Is a Lorem Ipsum Generator?

A Lorem Ipsum generator creates placeholder text that mimics the look and feel of real content. Designers, developers, and content strategists use it to fill layouts, test typography, and prototype pages before final copy is available — without distracting stakeholders with meaningful words.

Our generator builds text from the traditional ~200-word Lorem Ipsum vocabulary, assembling natural-sounding sentences with proper capitalization and punctuation. You can generate paragraphs, sentences, individual words, or structured lists — and toggle the classic "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet" opening on or off.

Choose your output format: plain text for quick copy-paste, HTML with semantic tags for web projects, or Markdown for documentation and CMS content. The live preview updates instantly, and real-time stats show word count, character count, and paragraph count.

Everything runs entirely in your browser — no server requests, no data collection, no accounts. Copy the generated text with one click, download it as a .txt or .html file, or hit Regenerate for fresh random content with the same settings.

FAQ

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about the Lorem Ipsum Generator

Q1. What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem Ipsum is dummy text that has been the printing and typesetting industry's standard placeholder since the 1500s. It originates from sections of "De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by Cicero, written in 45 BC. Designers use it because its letter distribution is close to English, making layouts look realistic without distracting readers with meaningful content.
Q2. Is the generated text real Latin?
Partially. The standard Lorem Ipsum passage is derived from a real Latin text by Cicero, but words have been altered, added, and scrambled over the centuries. Our generator uses the traditional Lorem Ipsum vocabulary — roughly 200 words — and assembles them randomly, so the output is not grammatically correct Latin.
Q3. How does the 'Start with Lorem ipsum' toggle work?
When enabled, the first sentence or paragraph always begins with the classic opening: "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit". The remaining text is generated randomly. When disabled, all text is fully randomized from the first word.
Q4. What's the difference between Plain Text, HTML, and Markdown formats?
Plain Text gives you raw text separated by line breaks — ideal for pasting into design tools or documents. HTML wraps paragraphs in <p> tags and list items in <ul>/<li> tags, ready for web projects. Markdown uses standard Markdown syntax (double line breaks for paragraphs, dashes for lists) for use in README files, CMS editors, and documentation.
Q5. Can I generate more than 100 paragraphs?
The generator supports up to 100 items per generation to keep browser performance smooth. If you need more, simply generate multiple batches and combine them. Each generation produces fresh random text, so you'll get unique content every time.
Q6. Is my data stored or sent to a server?
No. All text generation happens entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript. Nothing is transmitted to any server, no cookies are set, and no data is stored. When you close the tab, everything is gone.
Q7. Why use Lorem Ipsum instead of real text?
Lorem Ipsum prevents readers and stakeholders from focusing on content instead of design. Its natural letter frequency closely mimics English, so text blocks look realistic without being distracting. This makes it ideal for evaluating typography, spacing, and layout before final copy is ready.
Q8. Can I download the generated text?
Yes. Click 'Download TXT' to save the text as a plain .txt file. When HTML format is selected, a 'Download HTML' button also appears, which saves a complete HTML document with your generated markup that you can open directly in a browser.
