ID: 33599 User updated by: kni at exactal dot com Reported By: kni at exactal dot com -Status: Feedback +Status: Open Bug Type: GD related Operating System: FreeBSD PHP Version: 4.3.11 Assigned To: pajoye New Comment: The server is running freetype 2.1.7 Is this too old? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-07 08:53:00] pajoye@php.net I just checked your phpinfo. It sounds like you have an old FT version, probably version 1. Please check that and update the freetype lib to a more recent (and decent) version if needed. --Pierre ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-07 08:37:43] kni at exactal dot com http://d144091.tmp56.quadrahosting.com/resources/zapf.ttf I've tested it and reproduced the same problem with other fonts also. eg. http://d144091.tmp56.quadrahosting.com/resources/GNMI____.TTF ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-07 08:34:09] pajoye@php.net Do you have a link to the TTF font you use? Check your ports to see which Freetype version. --Pierre ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-07 08:32:32] kni at exactal dot com Locally I'm running freetype-2.1.8 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-07 08:27:22] kni at exactal dot com I didn't configure the live env myself (only the dev. env, which, alas, works). How does one work out which freetype version is running? Sorry for sounding like a goof!
