graph.

For example, if you wanted 3 paragraphs of 6 sentences each, you would

enter the following into a blank paragraph:

=rand(3,6)

You can leave out the sentence count parameter (‘s’), if desired, and Word will
resort to the default number of sentences per paragraph, which is 3 in Word
2016.

If you want to generate Lorem Ipsum text instead of the above random text,
then you can simply use the lorem function as shown below:

=lorem(5,5)
The same rules apply as with the rand function. If you prefer lorem ipsum text,
this is the best way to insert it into Word. If you use an online lorem ipsum
generator and copy and paste it into Word, it will highlight all the text as
incorrectly spelled and everything will be red. When you generate the text using
the function, it doesn’t spell check it or proof it.

Enable Replace Text As You Type

If inserting random text doesn’t work for you in Word, click the Office button
and click the Word Options button at the bottom of the menu. In newer versions
of Word, click on File and Options.
On the Word Options dialog box, click Proofing in the left pane.

Click the AutoCorrect Options button.

Word displays the AutoCorrect tab of the AutoCorrect dialog box. Make sure
the Replace text as you type check box is checked.

If you are using an older version of Word, the AutoCorrect Options can be found

under the Tools menu.
 

If you actually look through the AutoCorrect replacement text entries in

the AutoCorrect dialog box, you will find nothing there about this random text
feature. It seems to be a hidden feature of Word. Enjoy!
