PHP 4.0 Bug #8544: ImageTTFText

From: frederic.lamsens@rug.ac.be Operating system: Madrake Linux 7.2 PHP version: 4.0.4 PHP Bug Type: GD related Bug description: ImageTTFText System: Linux 2.2.17-21mdksecure #1 SMP Thu Oct 5 Asus Dual PIII 450 Mhz NVidia Riva128 256 Mb SDRam PHP Configuration: ./configure --with-mysql --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --with-ttf --with-gd --with-ldap GD: GD Version 1.8.1 (static) Freetype Version 1.3 FreeType Support enabled FreeType Linkage with TTF library PNG Support enabled When I compiled PHP and used ImageTTFText, the result was not what I expected. Although I can see my input string, the text was shown at an angle of 270 degrees and mirrored. So 'The' looks like '|-' and the 2 next charachters are below the '|-'. I have been able to solve the problem by changing the php code and recompile the whole thing. Filename: gdttf.c (located in ext\gd) Line: around 743 Original code: #if HAVE_LIBGD13 pixel = &im->pixels[y3][x3]; #else pixel = &im->pixels[x3][y3]; #endif New code: pixel = &im->pixels[y3][x3]; By reversing the arguments, the image is now correct. I hope this information helps ... -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=8544&edit=1
