#33599 [Opn->Bgs]: poor quality imagettftext

ID: 33599 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: kni at exactal dot com -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: GD related Operating System: FreeBSD PHP Version: 4.3.11 Assigned To: pajoye 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. Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP. Installation error. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-08 03:18:48] pajoye@php.net I'm sorry but if it works locally using ft 2 and not on your host, there is install problem. I suggest you to move to php-install and/or fbsd lists. Not much I can do without an access to the host. Neither I will do the setup for free. By the way, php+bundled gd +ft2 do work well on freebsd... A last try is to see if they active the smart subpixel support (could require a manual change in the ft2 include before make), but does not seem to be the problem. --Pierre ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-08 03:09:21] kni at exactal dot com --with-ttf has been removed. The problem remains. The configure command is now: './configure' '--localstatedir=/var/hsphere/php' '--with-apxs=/hsphere/shared/apache/bin/apxs' '--with-zlib=/usr' '--with-zlib-dir=/usr' '--with-bz2=/usr/local' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-calendar' '--with-gd' '--with-freetype-dir=/usr/local' '--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--with-png-dir=/usr/local' '--with-gettext=/usr/local' '--with-imap=/hsphere/shared' '--with-mysql=/usr/local' '--with-pgsql=/usr/local' '--enable-sockets' '--with-zip=/usr/local' '--enable-versioning' '--enable-track-vars' '--enable-trans-sid' '--disable-debug' '--enable-exif' '--enable-mbstring' '--with-regex=system' '--with-mhash=/usr/local' '--with-mcrypt=/usr/local' '--with-curl=/usr/local' '--with-ming=/usr/local' '--with-dom=/usr/local' '--with-iconv=/usr/local' '--enable-memory-limit' '--enable-sqlite-utf8' ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-08 02:43:03] pajoye@php.net Remove freetype 1.x from the system (include development package) may help them... --Pierre ps: keep this report on feedback until you got an answer and write it here :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-08 02:31:56] kni at exactal dot com Thanks for the advice. I'll pass this onto the admin and see what they say. Meanwhile, our local environment (that works) is configured similarly (--with-ttf): Configure Command './configure' '--with-gd' '--with-jpeg-dir=../jpeg-6b/' '--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs' '--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql' '--with-zlib-dir=../zlib-1.2.1/' '--enable-sockets' '--with-mcrypt' '--with-ttf' '--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--with-freetype-dir=../freetype-2.1.8/' ...? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-08 02:20:17] pajoye@php.net '--with-ttf' This is freetype 1.0 support. You activated both, it's no good idea. I have the feelings that 1.0 is used and not 2.0. --Pierre ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
