I just checked using PHP5 CVS (Built On: Dec 17, 2003 19:30 GMT), and
relative paths ('./arial' and 'arial') do work, but only without the
'.ttf' file extension. For example, 'arial.ttf' as the fontfile
argument does not work.

Absolute paths to the fontfile still do not work, neither in the MS-DOS
naming convention ('C:\Progra~1\Apache~1\Apache2\htdocs\arial.ttf') nor
in the general way ('C:\Program Files\Apache
Group\Apache2\htdocs\arial.ttf').

if arial.ttf is inside C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs it
will try to open it.

er wait, I get
C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs
(without the trailing backslash)

if you add echo getcwd(); to your script, what directory does it show?

After checking, I determined that the problem with opening the fontfile
in the PHP 5 CVS version of imagettftext() occurs on both Apache 1 and
2 (both sapi modules).
