Lorem Ipsum Generator
Generate placeholder text for your design and development projects
About this Tool
The Lorem Ipsum Generator creates placeholder text for design mockups, website templates, and content layouts. Lorem Ipsum is scrambled Latin text that has been the industry-standard dummy text since the 1500s. It provides realistic-looking text that doesn't distract from design elements with readable content. This tool generates paragraphs, sentences, or words of Lorem Ipsum text instantly, helping designers, developers, and content creators visualize how layouts will look with actual content before final copy is available. The generated text maintains a natural-looking distribution of letters and word lengths, making it ideal for testing typography, spacing, and overall design aesthetics.

Pro Tips
- !
Why Lorem Ipsum?
Real text in mockups can distract stakeholders who focus on content rather than design. Lorem Ipsum looks like text but is meaningless, keeping attention on visual elements, layout, and design decisions.
- !
Paragraph vs Sentence Generation
Use paragraphs for body text, sentences for shorter sections like captions, and words for testing buttons or navigation labels. Choose the unit that best matches your design needs.
- !
Replace Before Launch
Never leave Lorem Ipsum in production sites or final deliverables. It's unprofessional and harms SEO. Always replace with real content before going live.
- !
Consider Content Length
Generate slightly more text than you think you need to test how designs handle overflow, text wrapping, and various content lengths. Real content rarely fits perfectly.
- !
Alternative Placeholder Text
While Lorem Ipsum is standard, consider industry-specific placeholder text or themed generators for presentations where context matters, but always clarify it's sample content.
