[them]

ik have installed libgd with php that works perfects but I want to use the magegettftext function.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.imagettftext.php
You must have gd installed for this and freetype I have both. I have lidgd compiled again and also compiled php again with gd support. Now i try the example code in the tutorial en it dosent work.

Could someone help me please I'm working on it for I will.

just do simply file:

Code: Select all

<?php
phpinfo();
?

and see info about GD library, if you not see about it so you not correct compile php :^(

You should enable truetype font support on php. It says:
imagettftext -- Write text to the image using TrueType fonts
