PHP 4.0 Bug #7769: antialias does not work properly in imagettftext

From: defiant@telnet.hu Operating system: Debian Lin \"woody\" PHP version: 4.0.3pl1 PHP Bug Type: GD related Bug description: antialias does not work properly in imagettftext Hi there! The following script should produce a BLACK text over a red rectangle on a white background. It almost does that, except that the color of the text is GRAY. header ("Content-type: image/png"); $im = ImageCreate (250, 40); $background_color = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 255, 255, 255); $rect_color = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 255, 0, 0); $text_color = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 0, 0, 0); ImageFill($im, 0, 0, $background_color); ImageFilledRectangle($im, 60, 5, 100, 35, $rect_color); ImageTTFText ($im, 20, 0, 10, 20, $text_color, "/cda/ttf/ARIAL.TTF", "Testing... "); ImagePng ($im); If I turned off the antialiasing with ImageTTFText ($im, 20, 0, 10, 20, 1*$text_color, "/cda/ttf/ARIAL.TTF", "Testing... "); then the text color is black again (negative color index). I do not know if it is a problem with GD or Freetype or PHP or the Debian package. A script like this worked for me fine before, but it does not right now.
