Frequently Asked Questions
What is lorem ipsum?
Lorem ipsum is placeholder text derived from a work by Cicero, scrambled so it looks like Latin but has no meaningful content. Designers and developers use it to fill layouts without distracting readers with real copy.
Why use placeholder text instead of real content?
Placeholder text lets you evaluate a layout's visual balance and typography without the content influencing design decisions. It's a standard practice in wireframing and mockups.
What is the difference between words, sentences, and paragraphs?
Words mode returns a flat sequence of space-separated words. Sentences mode returns complete sentences ending with a period. Paragraphs mode groups multiple sentences into blocks separated by blank lines — ideal for body text mockups.
What does "Start with Lorem ipsum…" do?
When checked, the output always begins with the classic "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet…" opening that designers recognise as a placeholder. When unchecked, the generator builds the output by selecting words at random from the same lorem ipsum word pool instead.
Is this the real lorem ipsum?
The classic opening paragraph is the authentic text. Generated text beyond the opening is drawn from the same Latin-derived word pool, so it reads naturally but is not a verbatim passage from Cicero.
