Lorem ipsum generator

Generate placeholder text by paragraphs, sentences or words, as plain text or HTML.

How it works

Sentences are 6 to 14 random words from the classic lorem ipsum vocabulary, with a capital letter, an occasional comma and a full stop. Paragraphs have 4 to 7 sentences.

Frequently asked questions

What is lorem ipsum?

Scrambled Latin based on a passage by Cicero, used as placeholder text since the 1500s. It looks like real text, so a layout can be judged without the words distracting.

Can I get HTML?

Yes: choose HTML and every paragraph is wrapped in <p> tags, ready to paste into a page.

Is the text the same every time?

Only the classic opening sentence is fixed (you can turn it off). The rest is assembled at random from the usual lorem ipsum words.
