FAQ
Is my data uploaded?
No. The text is generated in your browser without any network access.
What does Lorem ipsum mean?
Lorem ipsum is placeholder text used by typesetters since the 16th century. It comes from Cicero’s Latin work De finibus bonorum et malorum, with the words scrambled so it has no real meaning. It lets people focus on layout and type instead of content.
How is the Chinese placeholder text made?
Words are picked at random from a small built-in list of neutral words (sky, window, blue, morning…) and joined into sentences with commas and full stops. The list leaves out names, verbs and sensitive words, so the result reads like a loose string of words rather than meaningful sentences.
What is the seed for?
With any text as a seed (for example homepage), the exact same text is generated every time, which is handy for mockups, screenshots and automated tests. Without a seed, the browser’s cryptographic random numbers are used and every result differs.
How are Chinese characters counted?
With Chinese selected, the “Characters” unit generates exactly that many Chinese characters, not counting commas and full stops.
