About Lorem Ipsum Generator
Lorem Ipsum has been the standard placeholder text of the printing and design industries since the 1500s, derived from a work of Cicero. Its value is that it looks like prose without being readable as prose.
This generator produces any number of paragraphs, sentences or words, with control over the classic opening and optional HTML wrapping for pasting straight into a template.
Frequently asked questions
Why use Lorem Ipsum instead of real text?
Nonsense Latin has a natural distribution of word lengths but carries no meaning, so reviewers judge the layout rather than the copy.
Can I start with the classic opening?
Yes. The familiar "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet" opening is on by default and can be turned off for fully random text.
Can it generate HTML?
Yes, output can be wrapped in paragraph tags ready to paste into a template.
