GD Font Freetype2 Problem: Where are the fonts kept?

3 New Member
I'm working with GD, but just starting with it. How can I find out where the fonts are actually located? I need to figure out what fonts I have to work with, so that I can use them in an image.

I thought it would be rather fun to try out @font-face, but I cannot get it to work. I used Microsoft WEFT to generate several embedded fonts and find that the example below works when I use my Win XP development machine as both the browser and Web server. However if I try to display the same page from another machine (Mac OS X, Win 2000, or Win XP) using the Win XP development machine as the Web server then I get the default font...

I am a bit curious about this. The graphic design people I work with say it is their preferred font for web pages. The reason being that it is "kinder" to the eye both in terms of shape and size. The HTML "hardcore elititst" profess that it is a useless font because it is too big compared to other fonts. Personally I do not care one way or the other, but I generally trust

Is anyone aware of (a fix for) problems I'm having getting PIL 1.1.5 to create bitmaps using TrueType and openType fonts? When I create an image using the standard PIL fonts everything seems fine, but when I use ImageFont.truetype(<font-file>, <size>) no text is drawn. setup.py reports from debug print statements that it's finding freetype21. The same code using (Fredrik's pre-built binary) on Windows runs correctly and produces...

Hi All; I, like others, have been frustrated with designing forms that look and flow the same in both IE and Firefox. They simply did not scale the same. I have discovered, to my chagrin, that IE7 does not seem to offer any way to control the font size of a text input element.

Hi, I was wondering if there is way use a font that is somehow kept in the code instead of having to load it? I am working on a single script that so far can produce images and html but I have not been able to figure out a way that it can also produce a font. Thanks Carl

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
