Lorem Ipsum Generator

Generate placeholder lorem ipsum text. Choose paragraphs, sentences, or words.

What is a Lorem Ipsum Generator?

A Lorem Ipsum generator creates placeholder text for use in design mockups, wireframes, and development environments. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text since the 1500s, when a printer scrambled a section of Cicero’s “De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum” to create a type specimen book.

Using placeholder text lets designers and developers focus on layout, typography, and spacing without being distracted by meaningful content. Our generator creates multiple paragraphs of classic Lorem Ipsum text instantly, ready to paste into your designs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why use Lorem Ipsum instead of real text?

Real text is distracting — reviewers tend to read and critique the content instead of evaluating the design. Lorem Ipsum looks like natural text (it has a distribution of letter frequencies similar to English) without being readable, keeping the focus on visual design.

Is Lorem Ipsum just random Latin?

Not quite. It originates from a 45 BC text by Cicero, but sections have been altered, added, and scrambled over the centuries. The result looks like Latin but doesn’t form coherent sentences.
