Where does Lorem ipsum come from?

It is scrambled Latin from Cicero's "De finibus bonorum et malorum", written in 45 BC. A typesetter garbled a passage in the 1500s and printers have used it ever since.

Should I ship a site with lorem ipsum in it?

No. It is the classic embarrassing production bug. Search engines see meaningless duplicate text, and visitors see that the page was never finished.

Why not just repeat a sentence?

Repeated text has an unrealistic rhythm. Real prose has varying word and sentence lengths, and a layout that works with uniform text often breaks with real copy.

Can I generate an exact character count?

Not directly — pick words as the unit and trim. Most layout work needs an approximate volume rather than an exact one.

Placeholder text exists so you can judge a layout without being distracted by what the words say. Lorem ipsum works because it has roughly the word-length distribution of real prose but carries no meaning — nobody stops to read it, and nobody argues about the copy while the design is still moving.

So funktioniert es

Choose how much you need and whether you want paragraphs, sentences or a raw word count.
Leave "start with Lorem ipsum" on if you want the familiar opening that signals placeholder text at a glance.
Generate as many times as you like — each run produces a different random arrangement.
Copy the result, or send it straight to a paste to hand to a designer or developer.
