Frequently Asked Questions
What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem Ipsum is scrambled Latin text from Cicero's 'De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum' (45 BC), used since the 1500s as placeholder text in printing and design. It mimics natural word distribution without distracting with readable content, making it ideal for mockups and layouts.
Why use Lorem Ipsum instead of real text?
Lorem Ipsum prevents readers from focusing on content instead of design. Real text can distract stakeholders or clients from evaluating layout, typography, and visual hierarchy. It also avoids copyright issues and maintains a professional, neutral tone in prototypes.
How do the quick presets work?
Presets instantly generate common text lengths: 1 Paragraph (50 words), 3 Paragraphs (standard), 5 Paragraphs (medium article), Long Article (10×100 words), Short Snippet (2×25 words). Click any preset for immediate generation without manual configuration.
What does 'Start with Lorem ipsum' do?
When enabled, the first paragraph begins with 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...' for traditional placeholder text. Disable it to start with random words from the Lorem Ipsum vocabulary—useful when you need variety or multiple distinct blocks.
Can I generate very long text?
Yes! Generate up to 20 paragraphs with 200 words each (4,000 words total). Use the download feature for large outputs to avoid clipboard limits. Perfect for testing pagination, scroll behavior, or content-heavy layouts.
Is this the original Lorem Ipsum text?
It uses the classic Lorem Ipsum vocabulary (lorem, ipsum, dolor, sit, amet, consectetur, etc.) but randomizes word order. The original passage is fixed; this tool creates variations while maintaining the characteristic look and feel.
