#20451 [Opn->Csd]: imagepstext generates weird images since PHP 4.3.0-pre1

ID: 20451 Updated by: pajoye@php.net Reported By: fdsoft@pganet.com -Status: Open +Status: Closed Bug Type: GD related Operating System: Red Hat Linux 7.3 PHP Version: 4.3.0RC1 New Comment: Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Thank you for your interest in PHP. Hello, I have downloaded your script (which is bugged, the path to the font is wrong generated, removed +1 :) ), I do not see any problem with the font (except the fact, as you said, it s an ugly font). I compared the result with a font viewer as well as a paint program, no problem occurs. Tests made with RC2, RC1 and HEAD. pierre Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-18 15:07:12] fdsoft@pganet.com Verified that the problem still exists in PHP 4.3.0RC1. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-16 13:44:42] fdsoft@pganet.com Reopening the report ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-15 23:06:10] fdsoft@pganet.com I forgot to mention that I use t1lib 1.3.1 from the following address to enable the imageps* functions in the gd extension (--with-t1lib configure option): ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/libs/graphics/t1lib-1.3.1.tar.gz ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-15 23:03:00] fdsoft@pganet.com Yes, certainly, here's the whole code and the font in question: http://web.axelero.hu/fdsoft/temp/fonttest.zip There are some really ugly calculations and a brute force way of determining the size of the would-be image in the code, since imagepsbbox function didn't quite work well either. At least that was the case with PHP 4.2.x, and since I added this workaround, I've yet to re-check that in 4.3.0. Now for this weird output problem I can't figure out a workaround, and this was absolutely perfect with PHP 4.2.x., hence my bug report. It's likely that the fonts I use are of low quality or buggy or both; but that doesn't change the fact that this was working nicely with the older versions. Thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-15 21:18:24] sniper@php.net Can you please provide a complete and working example script? This one you added does not work. --Jani ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
