I basically want to add invisible blind text to my document. To print the rough layout and take some notes on what I want to write inside each of the missing paragraphs.
I tried:
\phantom{\blindtext}
This only reserves one (very long) line of text.
\vspace{10cm}
This does not behave like text. I could add a lot of small \vspace
but maybe there is a better solution?

You can use a minipage or a vbox inside the
\phantom
-macro to get the real size.With the blindtext inside a minipage you may get problems at pagebreaks, but a
\vbox
should do the work.Check this example:
The
\fbox
es are added to make the space visible. They are not part of the solution.Based on the comment, I expect this is a MWE for the problem:
Maybe there is another solution, but I don't expect that it can be solved with
\phantom
. See also Phantom and line break
