Lorem ipsum
Drops blocks of placeholder text onto the page so you can see how a layout reads before the real content exists.
When you are designing a page template, a space home or a multi-column layout, empty sections collapse and you cannot tell whether the design works. This macro fills them with classic lorem ipsum paragraphs, in one to three columns, so the page has realistic bulk while you arrange things around it. Reach for it while prototyping a template or demonstrating a layout to someone, then delete it and put the real words in. It is deliberately simple: two numbers and nothing else.
