PLEASE, DO NOT CONFUSE A RANDOM TEXT GENERATOR WITH AUTO-TEXT ARE DIFFERENT
THINGS
You did not understand what a Lorem Ipsum generator is.
Auto-Text is not useful here.
Lorem Ipsum paste large quantities of radom texts in a paragraph, table, box,
etc. Please, observe this: large quantities of random texts.
This is necessary because in that way you can see how the paragraph will looks
like.
Repeating texts our autocompleting is not useful because it forces you to
complete several steps: hit f3, use auto-text, go to that menu.
No. A Lorem Ipsum generator is an option you can find in a contextual menu
after pressing the right button of your mouse and with a single click you are
able to fill large quantities of text in boxes, tables, paragraphs, etc.
To understand how this work and why is useful, is necessary to have some
minutes of time and watch the video:

Why Auto-Text cannot be used:
-
- It cannot be used becuase to see the aspect of a document you need RICH
TEXT, that is a lot of different text. That allows you to appreciate things
like line spacing, kerning, fonts styles, colors and very important THE GENERAL
COMPOSITION OF THE PAGE.
Repeating a lot of time Lorem Ipsum is not useful. A designer cannot do
anything with that.
Again, to understand what this feature is, you need to be a designer.
Why is useful a Random Text Generator (Lorem Ipsum Generator):
--
- Because it allows you to create templates very fast, having the perfectly
defined and ready to use.
- Because allows you to create memorandums ready to use, or standard letters,
circulars, ready to use, that need to be filled with random text, that later
on, will be replaced by the final text. However, is necessary to have the
documents already finished with a random text to see how they looks like.
Please, do not confuse with Auto-Text.
