Generate Placeholder Text for Your Designs and Layouts
A simple yet powerful tool for generating Lorem Ipsum placeholder text. Perfect for design mockups, wireframes, and layout prototyping with support for words, sentences, and paragraphs.
The Lorem Ipsum Generator is a straightforward tool for creating placeholder text. Whether you're designing a website, creating a mockup, or need content for layout testing, this tool generates realistic-looking Latin placeholder text that won't distract from your design.
The generator uses a comprehensive list of Latin words to create grammatically correct-looking placeholder text. Each generation produces unique text by randomly selecting words from the vocabulary.
Specify the number of items to generate. Range: 1-100. For paragraphs, this controls how many paragraphs are created. For sentences, it controls the number of sentences. For words, it controls the total word count.
Choose between Words, Sentences, or Paragraphs. Each type creates text at a different granularity level.
Tip: Each time you click Generate, new random text is created. This is useful when you need multiple versions of placeholder content.
The tool supports three different output formats, each suited for different use cases.
Generates a specified number of random Latin words strung together.
Generates complete sentences with proper capitalization and punctuation.
Generates multiple paragraphs with varying numbers of sentences for realistic block text.
Note: Sentences contain 5-15 words each (randomly generated), and paragraphs contain 3-8 sentences each. This variation makes the text look more natural.
Once you've generated your placeholder text, several options are available for working with the output.
Copies the generated text to your clipboard with one click. A toast notification confirms the copy action.
Downloads the generated text as a .txt file named 'lorem-ipsum.txt' for easy use in other applications.
Clears the generated text from the output area, allowing you to start fresh.
Lorem Ipsum text is widely used in design and development workflows. Here are the most common scenarios where this tool is helpful.
Fill in text containers, blog post previews, and article layouts with placeholder content to visualize the final design.
Use Lorem Ipsum in wireframes to show clients how content will flow without the distraction of meaningful text.
Test different fonts, sizes, and line heights with realistic paragraph lengths and sentence structures.
Quickly fill responsive layouts to test how content adapts across different screen sizes.
Mock up brochures, posters, and print materials with placeholder text that mimics real content density.
Template systems often use Lorem Ipsum as default content until real text is entered.
Lorem Ipsum has been the standard dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry since the 1500s. The text is derived from Cicero's "De finibus bonorum et malorum" (On the Ends of Good and Evil), a philosophical treatise that was popular during the Renaissance.
Fun Fact: The phrase "Lorem ipsum" comes from the Latin words "dolorem ipsum," meaning "pain itself." This unintentional irony has made it a staple in the design world!
