What is Lorem Ipsum?

Lorem Ipsum is commonly used as placeholder text when designing layouts. Use it to test spacing, typography and content density before final copy is ready.

This generator creates Lorem Ipsum-style content using bundled vocabulary and generation rules. Generated passages do not reproduce a particular historical Latin source.

Classic or plain-English placeholder text

Choose Classic Lorem Ipsum for Latin-style filler, or English placeholder text for neutral English filler content. English mode helps you test layouts, spacing, typography and content density. It is placeholder content, not researched or publication-ready copy.

Choose an exact output count

Select Paragraphs or Sentences and enter a quantity to generate that exact number of paragraphs or sentences. Use Words or Characters when a layout needs a specific text length.

Word counts use whitespace-separated tokens, including attached punctuation. Character counts use user-perceived grapheme boundaries and include spaces and punctuation. HTML tags do not count toward requested word or character totals. Other editors may use different counting conventions.

Use the Word & Character Counter to analyse text with reading estimates and word frequency. Its counting conventions may differ from this generator's exact-count rules.

The traditional opening

Classic mode can optionally begin with Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. The opening is included once when the selected output length permits. This setting applies only to Classic mode.

Copy text or HTML for your layout

Choose plain text or simple HTML paragraph markup. HTML output escapes the generated text and wraps paragraphs for use in layouts or development. Tags do not contribute to the requested text count.

Copy the generated output or download it as a .txt or .html file. Generate again creates a fresh result with the current settings. Reset returns the tool to its starting state.

Generated text stays in your browser

Placeholder text is generated in your browser and is not sent to UtiliBits. Generated output stays in component memory until you change or reset it, or leave the page. It is not stored in URLs, analytics, logs or advertising data.
