What the lorem ipsum generator does
Lorem ipsum is dummy text that looks like real writing without saying anything. This generator makes as much of it as you need, as paragraphs, sentences, words or list items, so you can fill a layout before the real copy is ready.
Designers use it in website mockups, print layouts and slide templates. Developers use it to see how a page copes with long or short content, and to check fonts, line lengths and spacing before the final text arrives.
How to use the lorem ipsum generator
- Choose paragraphs, sentences, words or list items, and how many (1 to 500).
- Untick the classic opening if you want the text to start randomly, and tick Wrap in HTML tags for ready-made markup.
- Copy the text, or download it as a .txt file (or .html when tags are on). Press Generate new text for a different mix.
Understanding the output
Each sentence has between 6 and 16 words, with an occasional comma in the longer ones, and each paragraph holds 4 to 8 sentences. The word and character counts under the box tell you how much text you have, which helps when a design has a fixed space to fill.
With HTML on, paragraphs come wrapped in <p> tags, sentences are placed together in a single paragraph, and list items arrive as a <ul> list with one <li> per item. Without HTML, list items start with a bullet character so they paste neatly into a document.
Questions
What is lorem ipsum?
Scrambled Latin based on a passage by the Roman writer Cicero. Printers and designers have long used it as filler so that layouts can be judged without readers being distracted by the words.
Should I use it on a live site?
No. Replace placeholder text before publishing; search engines and visitors treat it as low-quality content.
Is the text random?
Words and sentence lengths are chosen randomly from a fixed Latin word list each time you generate, so two runs rarely match.
Does word mode give the exact number of words?
Yes. Word mode returns exactly the number you ask for as one long sentence, and the word count below confirms it. With the classic opening ticked, it starts “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipiscing elit”, cut short if you ask for fewer than eight words.
Is anything sent to UtiBox?
No. The text is put together in your browser, so it appears instantly and nothing you generate leaves the page.
