Input pages of nonsense using for testing purposes












0















Problem



I remembered seeing this multiple times on this site, one can specify how many pages of nonsense to input to check that some global page settings (margins, page numbers etc) are correct. But I do not remember the name of this package and I could not find it by Google.



More generally, if I want to know a package for some specific purpose, which site could I use so that no such questions would be asked here.

    If you just want to create, say, 10 pages, you could simply do documentclass{article} usepackage{pgffor} begin{document} foreach X in {1,...,10} {~clearpage} end{document}. Strictly speaking pgffor is not needed for that, you could use loop instead. documentclass{article} begin{document} loop ~clearpage ifnumthepage<10repeat end{document}
