sty: Creating Dummy Text Blindtext erzeugen

Knut Lickert January 6, 2012, V2.0

Abstract With this package you can create dummy text. Use \blindtext to get some text and \Blindtext to get a long text. With \blinddocument (or \Blinddocument) you get complete dummy documents. Details can be found at http://tex.lickert.net/packages/blindtext/ index_en.html. This File describes version V2.0. Mit diesem Paket kann man lange Texte erzeugen, ohne lange Texte einzugeben. Sinn ist die Erzeugung langer Beispieltexte, ohne den Quelltext lang zu machen. Details unter http: // tex. lickert. net/ packages/ blindtext/ . Dieses Dokument beschreibt Version V2.0.

\blinddocument create a document with sections, subsections. . . and lists (itemize, enumerate and description). \Blinddocument create a document with bigger sections, subsections. . . and longer lists.

1.4 A.3

* The default for \blindtext values depends on selected option (random : 17 sentences, pangram : 5 pangrams, default: 1 text).

Table 2: Modiying Repetion Factors The smallest document to check the look of a class would be:
\documentclass{<class>} \usepackage{blindtext} \begin{document} \blinddocument \end{document}

If you want to have a table of contents you have two ways: 1. use the package option toc 2. Just add the \tableofcontents-command in your testdocument.

1.2
1.2.1

Package options
Math Option

The math -option activates math formula for \blindtext. More see in section 1.5 on page 6 and B.5 on page 16. 1.2.2 Toc Option

Activate the table of contents for \blinddoccument. 1.2.3 Random Option

The random -option changes the default blind text to a sequence of predened sentences. The next paragraph starts with the next phrase from the previous paragraph. You may redene the number of phrases per paragraph, details see table 2. If the language does not support this option, the default text is used.

1.2.4

Pangram Option

The pangram -option changes the default blind text to a sequence of pangrams. A pangram, or holoalphabetic sentence, is a sentence using every letter of the alphabet at least once.1 You may redene the number of phrases per paragraph, details see table 2 on the previous page. If the language does not support this option, the default text is used. 1.2.5 Bible Option

The bible -option changes the default blind text to texts from bible verse 3.14 (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numeri and Deuteronomium)

1.3
\blindtext

Get Some Text

\Blindtext

\parstart \parend

\blindtext[ x ] create a text. The optional parameter dene a repetition. Default for the repetition is one and can be modied with \setcounter{ blindtext } { 1 }. See also table 2 on the preceding page. \Blindtext[ x ][ y ] create x paragraphs with the text of \blindtext. The rst optional parameter denes a repetition of the paragraphs. Default for the repetition is ve and can be modied with \setcounter{ Blindtext }{ 5 }. The second optional parameter is given to \blindtext. See also table 2 on the previous page. It is possible to add a start and end sequence for each paragraph. The two macros \parstart and \parend dene a starting and ending sequence for each paragraph in \Blindtext. The paragraph start is redened for each language change: First paragraphs get an empty start, the following paragraphs get dierent starting texts. Advantage: Each paragraph in a paragraph sequence looks dierent. This feature must be supported by the language2

1.4
\blindlist

Get Some Lists

\blindlistlist

\Blindlist

\blindlistoptional

\blindlist{ env }[ x ] create a list, the type is dened by the obligatory parameter. The optional parameter denes a repetition. Default for the repetition is ve and can be modied with \setcounter{ blindlist }{ x }. \blindlistlist[ level ]{ env }[ x ] creates cascaded lists up to level level, the type is dened by the second obligatory parameter. The optional parameter denes a repetition. Default is the same like in \blindlist. \Blindlist{ env }[ x ] create a list with long texts. The optional parameter denes a repetition. Default for the repetition is ve and can be modied with \setcounter{ blindlist }{ x }. \blindlistoptional{ env }[ x ] create a list with \item[ ]. The list is

dened by the obligatory parameter. The optional parameter denes a repetition. Default for the repetition is ve and can be modied with \setcounter{ blindlist } { x }. \Blindlistoptional create a list like \blindlistoptional with long texts. The commands \blinditemize, \blindenumerate and \blinddescription are abbreviations for \blindlist{ itemize }, \blindlist{ enumerate } and \blindlist{ description }. The commands \Blinditemize, \Blindenumerate and \Blinddescription are abbreviations for \Blindlist{ itemize }, \Blindlist{ enumerate } and \Blindlist{ description }.

Option math

1.5

Get Some Math in the Text

\blindmathpaper

\blindmathtrue \blindmathfalse

If you need a dummy text with math formula, you can add some math with the package option math. \blindmathpaper built some text with formulas in between. This macro is used in \blinddocument if \blindmathtrue is set. If you need dummy text with and without math, you can (de)activate the math option with the following commands: With \blindmathtrue you set a ag, so the following blind text contains inline math. With \blindmathfalse you reset the ag for inline math inside the blind text.

1.6
\blindmarkup

Get Additional Markup in the Text

If you want to test some markup in your dummy text you can redene \blindmarkup. \blindmarkup is a macro with one parameter and it set some parts in your markup. Example:
\renewcommand{\blindmarkup}[1]{\emph{#1}}

FAQ/More features
Add Tabulars and Tables

Is it possible to add tabulars to blindtext? There are no plans to integrate tabulars in blindtext. Tabulars in text are no good idea, they should be integrated to tables-environment (tabular, may be a short description, caption). Tabulars need there own layout, I dont think you may dene a table for each use in blindtext. You may dene your own tabular/table and surround it with \blindtext. Example:

\Blindtext % Your tabular \Blindtext

2.2

Add Pictures and Figures

Is it possible to add pictures to blindtext? There are no plans to integrate pictures in blindtext. I dont think you may dene a picture for each use in blindtext.

2.3

Key-Value-Options

You may change some defaults by redening commands3 or numbers4 . Would it be possible to dene them as key-value options? In theory yes, but I dont want to add an additional dependency to other packages.

2.4

More Languages

The language xx is not supported - can you add it? If you want to have blindtext in another language, please provide me some texts. I need: The language name (used in babel) Some text for the paragraphs Some (at least three) sentences for paragraph start. The numbers as used in rst, second. . . Some sentences to be used with option random. You may tell a little story and the last sentence can be continued with the rst sentence. Some pangrams (See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_pangrams.

\blind@checklanguage

It is possible, that you use blindtext.sty with undened languages. This macro checks if blindtext supports the language. If it is not available, an error is reported and the default lorem lipsum used. If you dont load babel, the message may be confusing: I get the warning welsh not dened.5

Counter and Supporting Macros

First we need some counters for the number of repetitions of the text and the paragraphs.

\newcounter{blindtext}\setcounter{blindtext}{1} \newcounter{Blindtext}\setcounter{Blindtext}{5}

Dene a counter for paragraph start sequence.

\newcounter{blind@countparstart}

\blindtext

\blindtext[x] writes a sentence x times. The default is stored in the counter blindtext. This value can be changed with \setcounter{blindtext}{1}.

Lists

Here I dene some ags to decide in the lists if we have to create big items and if we need the optional parameter at \item. These ags are reset in \blind@list. The counter blindlist dene the default number of items in a list. The counter blindlistitem is needed by \blindtext@count to write a text like rst, second. . . .
