Where does Lorem Ipsum actually come from?
Scrambled Latin from Cicero's 1st-century BC text "De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" — used as filler text since the 1500s, not made-up nonsense.

FAQ
Can I generate HTML output with paragraph tags already applied?
Yes — an HTML wrapping option wraps each generated item in <p> tags, or in an <ul><li> list, instead of plain text.
How many paragraphs/words can I generate at once?
Up to 300 words, 50 sentences, or 20 paragraphs per generation, depending on which unit you pick.
Why use Lorem Ipsum instead of real text?
Its even letter distribution resembles readable text without distracting reviewers with actual content, so they focus on layout, not copy.
Is anything sent to a server?
No, generated entirely in your browser.
