Type -> Fill with Placeholder Text.

And you can customize it if you don't want it to be the default latin words. Make a plain text document with the text you want to use and name it Placeholder.txt and put it in your InDesign folder.

(Great tip from Steve Werner in the past!)

Go to [url]www.gutenberg.org[/url] to get the text of any classic work in literature. Clean it up a bit, and save it as placeholder.txt and put it in the InDesign folder.
