Questions about Lorem Ipsum Generator

Where does lorem ipsum come from?
It is scrambled Latin from Cicero's De finibus bonorum et malorum, written in 45 BC, adopted by typesetters in the 1500s and spread by Letraset sheets in the 1960s. The famous opening is a fragment of "dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet".
Should I use Latin or English filler?
Latin when you want people to judge the layout rather than read the words. English filler when you are testing with real users, who find Latin distracting and sometimes think the page is broken.
Does it produce realistic character counts?
Yes. Character mode trims to an exact count at a word boundary, which is what you need when testing a field with a hard limit.
Does lorem ipsum hurt SEO if it reaches a live page?
Only in the sense that a published page of Latin filler gives a search engine nothing to rank and looks unfinished to visitors. There is no specific penalty for it, but it is worth catching before launch.
Do I need an account or an internet connection?
Neither. The generator is a page of JavaScript with the word lists built in, so it works with no sign-up and keeps working offline once the page has loaded.
Is Lorem Ipsum Generator really free, with no limits?
Yes. There is no account, no daily cap, no file-size tier and no watermark, because there is no server cost to recover. The site is funded by clearly disclosed partner recommendations on the Partners page, never by metering the tools.
Are my files or text uploaded when I use Lorem Ipsum Generator?
No. Everything is processed by JavaScript running in your browser, on your device. You can verify it: open your browser's developer tools, switch to the Network tab, and use the tool. You will see no request carrying your data — because there is nowhere for it to go.
