Bug #12064 Updated: Truetype functions can't locate fonts

ID: 12064 Updated by: rasmus Reported By: ben@kescom.net Old Summary: Truetype functions can't locate fonts Old Status: Open Status: Analyzed Bug Type: GD related Operating System: Windows 2000 SP1 PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: No idea about the Windows version, but on UNIX the new GD2 library is hardcoded to look for TTF fonts in /usr/share/fonts/truetype. Also, it automatically adds the .ttf extension itself so in your code you should not put the .ttf extension on your font. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-07-11 15:03:28] ben@kescom.net The GD TrueType functions can't find fonts; relative paths and absolute paths both do not work. Example (font is in the local directory, and . is part of my php.ini include_path) <? $image = ImageCreateTrueColor(200,200); ImageTTFText($image, 20, 0, 2, 15, $red, "d:/path/to/font.ttf", "Some text."); header("Content-type: image/jpeg"); // alternatively, ImageTTFText($image, 20, 0, 2, 15, $red, "font.ttf", "Some text."); header("Content-type: image/jpeg"); ImageJPEG($image, '', 100); ImageDestroy($image); ?> (written off the top of my head, it's in a larger script, but test scripts I wrote and unfortunately deleted don't work either) PHP reports: Warning: Could not find/open font in d:\path\to\fonttest.php on line 3 This is from the binary Win32 distribution of PHP 4.0.6 on php.net. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=12064&edit=1
