Frequently Asked Questions

What is Lorem Ipsum and where does it come from?

Lorem Ipsum is placeholder text used in the printing and typesetting industry since the 1500s. It comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. The text has been scrambled and modified to remove meaning, making it ideal as neutral placeholder text that won't distract from design evaluation.

Why use Lorem Ipsum instead of "Sample text here"?

Using "Sample text here" or repeated English phrases makes viewers focus on the words rather than the visual design. Lorem Ipsum's meaningless Latin text allows stakeholders and clients to evaluate layout, typography, and visual hierarchy without being distracted by readable content. It also provides realistic word lengths and letter frequencies similar to English, making it ideal for testing how actual content will look.

When should I use alternative text styles like Hipster or Tech?

Alternative text styles are useful when you want placeholder text that better matches your project's context and tone. Use Tech Ipsum for SaaS products and developer tools to test how technical jargon looks. Use Hipster Ipsum for lifestyle brands and artisanal products. Use Corporate Ipsum for business presentations and enterprise software. These alternatives help stakeholders visualize how domain-specific content will appear while remaining neutral enough to not be mistaken for final copy.

What's the ideal paragraph length for web content?

For web content, paragraphs should typically be 40-70 words (3-5 sentences) for optimal readability. Our Short preset generates 2 paragraphs (~80-140 words total), ideal for brief descriptions. Medium generates 5 paragraphs (~200-350 words), suitable for blog post sections. Long generates 10+ paragraphs (~400-700 words), perfect for article mockups. Mobile readers prefer shorter paragraphs, while desktop allows slightly longer ones. Test your layout with various lengths to ensure readability.

How do I use Lorem Ipsum with HTML and Markdown?

Select HTML format to get text wrapped in proper tags: <p> for paragraphs, <h2> for headings, and <ul><li> for lists. This is ready to paste directly into HTML files, CMS editors, or component templates. Select Markdown format to get text with ## for headings and - for lists, perfect for documentation, README files, and Markdown-based CMS like Ghost or Hugo. Both formats include Include Headings andInclude Lists options for realistic document structure.

What are common character limits I should know?

Common limits include: Meta descriptions - 150-160 characters for Google search snippets. Twitter/X - 280 characters per tweet. Instagram captions - 2,200 characters. Facebook posts - 63,206 characters (though optimal is 40-80).LinkedIn posts - 3,000 characters. Email subject lines - 50-70 characters for mobile visibility. Page titles (SEO) - 50-60 characters (512 pixels). Use our character limit feature to generate text that fits these constraints exactly.

Lorem Ipsum Best Practices

  • •Replace before launch: Always replace Lorem Ipsum with real content before going live. Search engines may penalize sites with placeholder text.
  • •Test edge cases: Generate very short and very long text to test how your layout handles extreme content lengths.
  • •Use realistic word counts: If your final content will be 500 words, use 500 words of Lorem Ipsum—not 50 or 5000.
  • •Mix with real content: Use Lorem Ipsum for body text but real headlines and CTAs so stakeholders understand the page purpose.
  • •Consider accessibility: Lorem Ipsum reads poorly with screen readers. Replace it early in accessible design processes.
  • •Use alternative styles wisely: Hipster, Tech, and Corporate Ipsum are fun but use them strategically—they can be distracting if overused.
