Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-14 14:49:25] schellekens at gmail dot com hi again, here's an example script. also 2 versions of the same script. the wrong rendering using php 4.3.9 win32: http://www.europe-re.com/snd/incorrect.png the correct rendering using php 4.3.9 Debian: http://www.europe-re.com/snd/correct.png the script: <?php // ================================ // Parameters // ================================ $imgw = 200; $imgh = 20; $fcol = "000000"; $bcol = "e0e0e0"; $fsiz = 8; $ftxt = "Beware of weird foggy bibberish spam"; $xpos = 10; $ypos = 13; $ftyp = str_replace("\\", "/", getcwd()) . "/fonts/arial.ttf"; // font to use // ================================ // create from scratch // ================================ $imgd = ImageCreate ($imgw, $imgh); $bcol = ImageColorAllocate ($imgd, hexdec(substr($bcol, 0, 2)), hexdec(substr($bcol, 2, 2)), hexdec(substr($bcol, 4, 2))); $fcol = ImageColorAllocate ($imgd, hexdec(substr($fcol, 0, 2)), hexdec(substr($fcol, 2, 2)), hexdec(substr($fcol, 4, 2))); ImageFill ($imgd, 0, 0, $bcol); ImageTTFText ($imgd, $fsiz, $rota, $xpos+$xoff, $ypos, $fcol, $ftyp, $ftxt); // ================================ // Output het plaatje // ================================ header ("Content-type: image/png"); ImagePNG ($imgd); ImageDestroy ($imgd); exit(); ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-14 04:54:12] jed@php.net Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce this bug ourselves. A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>, is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external resources such as databases, etc. If possible, make the script source available online and provide an URL to it here. Try avoid embedding huge scripts into the report. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-12 22:25:50] schellekens at gmail dot com Description: ------------ i noticed that in 4.3.9 for win32, rendering a text with ImageTTFText causes ugly character-spacing. rendering went better with version 4.3.3 which i used before. look at these differences: good (older)- http://www.europe-re.com/snd/right.png wrong (4.3.9) - http://www.europe-re.com/snd/wrong.png it may seem a minor detail but it just looks plain ugly now. i also tested on Apache/1.3.26 (Unix) Debian GNU/Linux PHP/4.3.9-1.dotdeb.3 which rendered correctly.
