Why designers use placeholder text
Judge layout, not words
Real copy pulls attention away from spacing, type and hierarchy. Placeholder text keeps the focus on the design itself.
Realistic line lengths
Lorem ipsum has a natural mix of short and long words, so paragraphs wrap like real writing. Repeating “text text text” does not.
Test with real structure
Generate HTML with headings and paragraphs, or a list, to try out your styles with the markup you will actually use.
Swap it before launch
Always replace placeholder text with real content before publishing. Search engines and visitors both notice filler.
Questions people ask
What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem ipsum is scrambled Latin used as dummy text in design and publishing. It is based on a passage from Cicero's “De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum”, written in 45 BC, and has been used as filler since the 1500s.
Is the text real Latin?
It looks like Latin, but the words are cut up and rearranged so the result is nonsense. That is the point: it reads like text without distracting you with meaning.
How do I get exactly the amount I need?
Choose paragraphs, sentences, words, characters or list items and set the number. “Characters” produces text of up to that length and always ends on a whole word.
Can I get HTML or Markdown?
Yes. Choose HTML to wrap each paragraph in p tags, or Markdown for plain paragraphs. Turn on headings to add h2 or ## titles, and choose list items for a ready-made ul or Markdown list.
Why would I use Business or Tech words instead of Latin?
English filler helps when you want a mockup to feel closer to real content, such as a SaaS landing page or a dashboard. It is still random, so it makes no real sense.
