Blindtext – Producing blind
text for testing
The package provides the commands \blindtext and
\Blindtext for creating blind
text
useful in testing new classes and packages, and
\blinddocument, \Blinddocument for creating an
entire random document with sections, lists, mathematics, etc.
The package supports three languages, english, (n)german and
latin; the latin option provides a short lorem
ipsum
(for a fuller lorem ipsum text, see the
lipsum package).
