Re: Re: gdttf.c version control ? (fwd)

I've ended up throwing that patch into into the current gdttf.c for 3.0.12. I put the patch here: ftp://myfonts.seet.com/pub/gdttf.c.patch Wasn't sure I could as it was my first time making a patch but what I actually did was pretty basic. I'm not sure where the code I cut and pasted came from. All I know is it made the change I needed to get this url rendering: http://myfonts.seet.com/testdriverender.php3?id=1117&s=abcrdefghi&p=35 before it was just a broken image although the renderer worked fine on other fonts. Just thought I'd offer it in case it makes someone else's job a bit easier. -Rob Rasmus Lerdorf wrote: > > Marko, this seems to be a call for action that is right up your alley. > How about getting that 4-bit anti-alias hack in there? > > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > Date: Wed, 08 Sep 1999 14:39:51 -0400 > From: John Ellson <ellson@lucent.com> > To: Rob Goodwin <rob@fusionmediagroup.com> > Cc: rasmus@lerdorf.on.ca, jah@mork.net > Subject: Re: gdttf.c version control ? > > Rob, > > Thanks for collecting the various versions together. > > This code is now in Tom Boutell's gd-1.6.3 (PNG only) so > my preference would be to develop a patch against that. > > I assume it would be desirable for PHP to use an installed > libgd.so or libgd.a without modification?
