What it does
Designers, writers and web builders need dummy text to see how a page will look before the real words are ready. This tool makes it for you. Choose how many paragraphs, sentences or words you want, choose the classic Latin filler or readable plain-English filler, and copy it. Press Make different text for a new mix. Nothing is sent to a server; the text is made on your device.
Need the real text measured later? Paste it into word counter to check it fits the space you designed.

What each setting does
- Paragraphs, sentences, words: the unit you count in. Paragraphs have 3 to 6 sentences. You can ask for up to 100 paragraphs, 500 sentences or 5000 words.
- Classic Latin: the traditional look, ideal when you do not want readers to focus on meaning.
- Plain English: ordinary office words, easier to judge line lengths for English layouts.
- Start with “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet”: the usual opening line. It applies to the classic kind.
- Wrap in HTML paragraph tags: puts each paragraph in a p tag, ready to paste into a web page.
Worked example
Ask for 5 words in classic style with the opening line on and you get “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet”. Ask for 2 paragraphs and you get two blocks of text, the first starting “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.”
FAQs
Does it mean anything? The Latin is scrambled and has no meaning. Do not leave it in a finished page.
Why does the text look the same each time? It starts from the same seed so the result is steady. Press Make different text for new text.
Can I use the text anywhere? Yes.
Where the numbers come from
- The classic filler is made from words of the traditional lorem ipsum text, which is derived from Cicero's De finibus (45 BC) and is in the public domain. Plain English filler is fibub's own.
