[TYPO3] Random content with limited text

[Eric Thelander]

Hello

I want to place a random content on one page, this content is text w/ 
image. I have set up the page tree as follows

Page 1 (showing random content)
    -> Page 2 (containing all text w/ image elements )

Right now Page 1 shows a random content fetched from Page 2 using the 
plugin "Random content". Due to the fact that some of the content on 
Page 2 contains allot of text I would like to limit it to 255 digits on 
Page 1, still showing the image. The user will be presented with a "Read 
more" link to view the complete text.

Any pointer on how I should acomplish this? Is it possible to do that 
using the "Random content" plaugin?

Best regards
Eric
