Dummy Text Generator

If you've got tired of using lorem ipsum as dummy text for your designs and of using the Lipsum Generator to create it, you might want to check out the Dummy Text Generator.

Not only does it create your standard lorem ipsum, but it also gives you several other texts to choose from — now why didn't I think of that?

The advanced setting gives you some options to play with different font settings, similar to other online tools to compare fonts that I've written about.

On the downside, it doesn't generate dummy text in list format, which Lipsum does.

This is a nifty resource - having used lipsum.com for some time, this is a breath of fresh air. The best part, from a development standpoint, is being able to show the P tags inline with the text! :)

Thanks Christian, I've been looking for an alternative to lipsum.com (not that I have a problem with the site - but many of the people I make mockups for keep asking why the page is in Latin).

Thank you, I have always used the lorem ipsum generator @ lipsum.com, now I have a bit more choice of text to use.

Thanks, really good site that. At last an easy way to get rid of all the dreaded Latin!

This has replaced my lipsum bookmark! What I actually love about this is that you can create smaller paragraphs sizes, unlike lipsum.com :)
