Blind Text Generator

Blind Text Generator

The Blind Text Generator logo is weak at best, but the tool itself is very useful. Get more control out of your nonsensical layout copy by choosing; number of characters, type of dummy text to display and full CSS font control.

It spits out the CSS on the fly and you can even wrap your copy in a <p> tag to save you one extra step. Sorry Lipsum, we have a new friend.
