Generate random text in Word
The built-in "random text" feature actually inserts the well known sentence: "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."
Generate random text in Word
Lorem Ipsum on the other hand, is just intended as a more-or-less normal distribution of letters (as opposed to using 'Content here, content here') making it look like readable English, while not distracting the audience... so they can focus on the layout. A normal distribution, or a Zipf distribution? IIRC, the distribution of relative letter frequencies as well as word frequencies follow Zipf's law. That is, the ratio of frequency between the nth and (n+1)th most common letter = (1/n) : (1/(n+1)). I could be wrong, but I think text that didn't have the same letter frequency distribution would look really odd, not just full of unknown words as lorem ipsum does. --- |
