Lorem Ipsum
Free web tool: Lorem Ipsum
About Lorem Ipsum
The Lorem Ipsum Generator is a free browser-based tool that produces placeholder text in two languages: classic Latin-derived Lorem Ipsum for English-language mockups, and Korean placeholder text for Korean-language UI and document mockups. You can generate content in three units — paragraphs, sentences, or individual words — and specify any count from 1 to 100. Click Generate, and the output appears in a copyable textarea. All generation is done client-side with no server requests.
Lorem Ipsum has been the standard filler text for typesetting and design since the 1500s, when an unknown printer scrambled a passage from Cicero's "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" to create a type specimen book. The text begins with "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit..." and is deliberately meaningless so that readers focus on layout and typography rather than content. This tool uses five canonical Lorem Ipsum paragraphs for English and five Korean placeholder passages (drawing from Korean poetry and literature) for Korean-language mockups.
This tool is useful for web designers, front-end developers, UX/UI designers, graphic designers, and content creators who need realistic-looking dummy text to fill layouts before actual content is written. The Korean placeholder text is particularly valuable for testing Korean typography, font rendering, and text layout in applications targeting Korean-speaking users. All output can be instantly copied to the clipboard for use in design tools, code editors, or documents.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem Ipsum is dummy placeholder text used in the printing and typesetting industry since the 1500s. It is derived from a scrambled passage of Cicero's Latin work "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (45 BC). The text begins with "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..." and is used by designers and developers to fill space in layouts so that readers focus on the visual design rather than being distracted by meaningful content. It remains the industry standard for placeholder text in mockups, wireframes, and prototypes.
What is the Korean Lorem Ipsum text used in this tool?
The Korean placeholder text uses passages from well-known Korean literary and poetic works, including lines from the Korean national anthem, traditional folk songs, and poems by renowned Korean poets. Like Latin Lorem Ipsum, the Korean text is used solely as readable, natural-sounding filler that tests Korean font rendering and text layout. It is not generated randomly — specific curated passages are cycled through based on the requested count.
What is the difference between paragraph, sentence, and word modes?
Paragraph mode assembles complete paragraphs (multi-sentence blocks of text) and joins them with double newlines. Sentence mode splits the paragraphs into individual sentences, appends a period to each, and joins them with spaces. Word mode extracts individual words from the text corpus and returns them space-separated. All three modes cycle through the available text source when the requested count exceeds the number of available unique items.
Can I generate more than 5 paragraphs?
Yes. The tool has 5 source paragraphs in each language. When you request more than 5 paragraphs, the tool cycles through the 5 paragraphs repeatedly. For example, requesting 7 paragraphs produces paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 1, 2. The same cycling behavior applies to sentences and words. You can request any count from 1 to 100.
Is the generated Lorem Ipsum text suitable for professional design mockups?
Yes. The classic Lorem Ipsum text used in this tool is the same canonical text used by design tools like Figma, Adobe InDesign, and Google Docs. It provides realistic character density and word-length distribution that simulates real body text. The Korean placeholder text similarly provides realistic-looking Korean text for Korean-language design mockups, testing font stacks, line heights, and text justification.
Can I use this tool to generate filler text for websites and apps?
Yes, that is the primary use case. Web developers frequently use Lorem Ipsum to populate template pages, test responsive layouts with varying text lengths, and demonstrate content areas before real copy is available. Simply generate the desired amount, copy it to your clipboard, and paste it into your HTML, CSS, design tool, or content management system.
Does the text vary each time I generate it, or is it always the same?
The text is deterministic — it always produces the same output for the same language/unit/count combination. The generator cycles through a fixed set of source paragraphs, sentences, and words in order. There is no randomization. This makes the output reproducible and predictable, which is useful when you need consistent placeholder text across multiple design iterations.
Is there a character limit on the generated output?
The tool allows counts from 1 to 100 (enforced by the number input with min=1, max=100). Paragraph mode at count 100 will produce the 5 Lorem Ipsum paragraphs cycled 20 times, which is approximately 15,000–20,000 characters. Word mode at 100 produces 100 space-separated words. All output is displayed in a textarea with a fixed height, and you can scroll within it or copy the full text to your clipboard regardless of length.
