paragraphs, lists, and regular text. Optionally available are extracts from a speech by
Cicero, corporate nonsense, and a randomised sonnet by Shakespeare. Text may be
inserted in code view and design view. The tool can be accessed via the Lorem and More

it's accessible using the menu: Insert > Lorem and More.

3. It's easy to insert dummy copy with the Scribus text editor. Select a text frame, then chose
"Sample Text" from the context menu after right-clicking. Predefined dummy copy in any
languages can be set by configuring an XML file and storing it in a subdirectory "/loremipsum"
of your Scribus installation. >> screenshots
