I assume you mean a TrueType font called verdana?

imageloadfont() is for bitmap fonts; you want likely want to use
imagettftext():

Yes :)

imageloadfont() is for bitmap fonts;
And i want to create verdana 10 bitmap font or convert
verdana from ttf to bitmap to use it with
imagestringup() function.
I need to write vertical text.

Converting a font is not possible in PHP, and so offtopic.
I need to write vertical text.
Use the "angle" parameter for imagettftext() to specify what direction
to write the text.

I don't want to convert font in PHP.
I wanto to create this font under linux or windows to use if with
imageloadfont().
I just can't find the tool to do this :(

I need to write vertical text.

Use the "angle" parameter for imagettftext() to specify what direction
to write the text.
I know that :)

Hmmmm, it works on my computer.

header("content-type:image/png");
$Image=ImageCreate(400,30);
$black=ImageColorAllocate($Image,0,0,0);
$white=ImageColorAllocate($Image,255,255,255);
imagefill($Image, 0, 0, $white);
ImageTTFText($Image, 10, 0, 10, 20, $black,
"/home/ozi/public_html/image/verdana.ttf","This is verdana 10");
ImagePNG($Image, "/home/ozi/public_html/image/im.png");
ImageDestroy($Image);
echo '<img src="im.png" border="0"><br />';
echo 'This is verdana 10 from css file (body { font: normal 10px
Verdana; })!';

Interesting but i changed my code to:
$r = (10/96)*72;
ImageTTFText($Image, $r, 0, 10, 20, $black,
"/home/ozi/public_html/image/verdana.ttf","This is verdana 10");
and still the difference is big.
