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.
imagettftext() doesn't support Big5, but it works with Unicode, so you
must convert your string to unicode first.

ImageTTFText() doesn't work with some chinese(big5) TTF fonts and
produce only UNKNOWN pattern and look alike Bug #28598. I have tried
many version such as 4.3.6; 4.3.8 and also 4.3.10-dev, the bug still
exists. As I know, it is the bug of GD (gdttf.c), but I don't know how
to fix it even I have read their suggestions. Can anyone help me.
My script code :
.....
// Create the image
$png = ImageCreate(200,200);
$bg = ImageColorAllocate($png,0,0,0);
$tx = ImageColorAllocate($png,255,128,128);
// Set Chinese words ("Chinese language" in Chinese Big5)
$string="ÖÐÎÄ";
// Chinese test (need mingli.ttf from MS-Win Chinese ver)
ImageTTFText($png,30,0,0,100,$tx,"arial.ttf",$string);
// Send the image
header("content-type: image/png\n\n");
ImagePng($png);
// Destroy image
ImageDestroy($png);
....
My current php/webserver is AppServ 2.4.1
ie Apache/1.3.31 (Win32) PHP/4.3.10-dev (which manual upgarde from
4.3.8)
