Line length: 45–75 characters

For body text on the web, about 45 to 75 characters per line is ideal. Columns that are too wide tire the eye; columns that are too narrow cause constant line breaks. Test different viewport widths and check whether your grid still works on tablet and mobile.

Paragraphs instead of text walls

Generate multiple paragraphs instead of one long block. That shows whether spacing between paragraphs, headings and lists works in a real content rhythm.

Themes that match the project

Lorem Ipsum is neutral — good for generic layouts. For clinic sites, contracts or tech blogs, themed text delivers more realistic word lengths and sentence rhythm than Latin placeholder copy.

Font sizes and hierarchy

Test dummy text at every level: lead, body, caption, button label. Placeholder text quickly reveals whether size differences are clear enough and whether line-height still feels comfortable in longer paragraphs.

Contrast and dark mode

Placeholder text is perfect for checking readability in light and dark mode. Ensure sufficient contrast — especially for secondary text and meta information.

HTML export for CMS & prototypes

If your system expects paragraphs as HTML, export directly with <p> tags. That saves manual reformatting in WordPress, Webflow or static prototypes.
