What is Lorem Ipsum?

Lorem Ipsum is placeholder text that has been the industry standard since the 1500s. It originated from a scrambled version of "De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC.

Unlike using "Content here, content here," Lorem Ipsum has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, making it look like readable English. This helps designers and developers focus on visual elements without being distracted by meaningful content.

The standard Lorem Ipsum passage has been used since the 1500s and was popularized in the 1960s with Letraset sheets, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem Ipsum is dummy placeholder text used in design and publishing since the 1500s. It looks like readable Latin but is actually scrambled, allowing designers to focus on visual layout without being distracted by content.
Why use Lorem Ipsum instead of real text?
Lorem Ipsum lets viewers focus on design elements rather than reading content. It mimics natural text distribution, helping designers visualize how layouts will look with real copy.
Can I generate a specific number of words?
Yes! Select "Words" from the type dropdown and enter your desired word count. You can generate anywhere from 1 to thousands of words of placeholder text.
Is the generated text the same every time?
The text is randomized from a pool of Lorem Ipsum words and phrases, so each generation produces slightly different results while maintaining the classic Lorem Ipsum style.
