A lorem ipsum generator for mockups that have real limits
Every lorem ipsum generator can pour out five paragraphs. The harder job is filling a space that has a hard ceiling: a 160-character meta description, a 30-character ad headline, a 500-character blog card. Paste too little and the mockup looks emptier than it will; paste too much and you are trimming by hand, usually mid-word.
Lorem Ipsum Maker handles both. In the side column, choose a unit under What and a number under How many, anything from 1 to 9,999, and the text is set on a page with a drop cap. Or choose a Fit to target and it builds text that lands on the limit while ending on a complete sentence. The header reports the result, for example 157 of 160 characters, set to fit a meta description.
A tally under the page counts words, paragraphs and lines, and a ruler down the side of the page numbers every fifth line, so you can see how deep a block runs without counting.
Placeholder text sized to a character limit
Fit to offers ten targets, each with its limit shown in the menu:
Switch the Language while a fit is on and the text is set again for that language, which makes it easy to see how many words a 160-character limit really holds in French compared with English.
- 30 characters: An app store subtitle, A search ad headline
- 90: A search ad description; 100: A video title
- 150: A profile bio; 160: A meta description, A text message
- 280: A tweet; 300: a short social post; 500: A blog card
- None to go back to plain word, sentence or paragraph counts
Dummy text in English, Chinese, Japanese and more
Classic Latin is not always the right stand-in. A layout for a German site needs long compound words, and a Japanese interface needs text with no spaces to see how lines actually break. The Language menu sets filler in Lorem Ipsum, English, Chinese (Han), French, German, Japanese or Spanish.
Limits follow the script. A text message in Chinese or Japanese is fitted to 70 characters rather than 160, the way a phone splits one.
Copy lorem ipsum as HTML, Markdown or plain text
Click anywhere on the page, or press Copy, and the text goes to the clipboard in the format chosen under Copy as. HTML wraps every paragraph in its own p tag for pasting into a template; Markdown separates paragraphs with a blank line for a README or a static site. A short confirmation names the format used.
Set new text gives a fresh variation with the same settings, handy when two cards side by side should not read identically.
