Frequently asked questions

Is the lorem ipsum generator free, and how much text can it make?

Yes, it’s free with no sign-up. Each run can generate up to 200 paragraphs, 500 sentences, 1,000 words, 1,000 characters or 200 list items. Click Generate again anytime for a fresh random version.

Does the lorem ipsum generator send anything to a server?

No. The placeholder text is generated in your browser from built-in word lists, and copy and download happen locally too. Nothing you choose or generate is uploaded.

How do I generate lorem ipsum with an exact number of characters?

Choose characters as the unit and enter the number, for example 160 to mock up a meta description or 280 for a social post. The output is trimmed to exactly that length, and the counter under the text confirms it.

How do I get lorem ipsum as HTML paragraphs or a list?

Set Output to HTML to wrap each block in paragraph tags, or pick list items as the unit to get a bulleted HTML list. With paragraphs, tick Add headings to insert H2 titles. The Code tab shows the raw markup, ready to paste into your page.

Can I generate English placeholder text instead of Latin?

Yes. Switch Style to Realistic English to get readable, UI- and marketing-style filler sentences. It’s useful for client mockups where Latin looks unfinished, while still being clearly placeholder copy.

What formats can I copy or download lorem ipsum in?

You can output plain text, HTML, Markdown or a JSON array of strings. Download saves the matching file type: .txt, .html, .md or .json. That makes it easy to seed a prototype, a CMS or test data for an app.
