Call to undefined Call to undefined function: imagettftext()

Hi.

On PHP 4.3.10 on Linux I try to:
------
$im = imagecreate(400 , 30);
$black = imagecoloralloc ate($im, 0, 0, 0);
imagettftext($i mage, 20, -3, 10, 20, $black, 'Arial.ttf', 'Test');
-------

But I get this error message:
--------
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imagettftext()
-----------

'Arial.ttf' is located in the same directory as my script. My phpinfo()
is:
--------------
'./configure' '--prefix=/usr/local/php'
'--with-apxs2=/usr/local/httpd/bin/apxs'
'--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql' '--with-curl=/usr/local/include/curl'
'--with-gd=/usr/local/gd' '--with-zlib-dir=/usr/local/zlib'
'-with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local/jpeg-6b'
--------------

Any suggestion? Thx.

You need to compile the freetype library into php to be able to use that
function.

I'm attempting to use ImageTTFText to render text to an image, I can get it to work if I a) specify the full font path b) switch off anti-aliasing c) specify an OpenType font (e.g. arial.ttf) If I specify a TrueType font (e.g. futura.ttf) I get an error message "Warning: imagettftext(): Could not find/open font in c:\filepath"

Hi, since I've upgraded to php 4.3.4 (before I used 4.1.2) I have a problem with imagettftext(): when executing the line: imagettftext($im, 20, 0, 10, 25, $white, "$script_dir/verdana.ttf", "Test en cours... Oméga: Ω");

Using PHP-4.3.11 with GD extension, bundled GD library, and freetype-2.1.9 (with X.org 6.8.1). I can't get the TrueType Font (TTF) bounding box to come out right. Whether using imagettftext() or imagettfbbox(), for some angles of text (like 45 degrees), the box comes back in the wrong place. Sample code below; just change the $font assignment...

Im using imagettftext to write some text on my image. I'm on Win XP and using the plain arial.ttf font that I copied from win dir my typical line would be imagettftext($im, 33, 0, 20, 500, $black, 'arial.ttf', $text); everything is perfect except the tab "\t" sign if I set $text = "something\tsomething" the tab gets displayed but it also...

Hi, I can compile and run this code (see below) which twice calls the function f, first with too less, second with too much arguments. But is it legal and free of memory leaks and other problems? Of course, I presume that inside f I don't access i in case it was called via g. int f(int i){ /* ... */ return 0; }

Hi everyone - I am not quite sure to understand what is really going on when a function defined in one translation unit calls a function defined in a different translation unit without knowing its prototype. Let's say for instance : foo.c #include <stdio.h>
