ID: 1987 Updated by: markonen Reported By: animate2@underworld.net Status: Closed Bug Type: Misbehaving function Assigned To: Comments: ImageTTFBBox behaviour is -- while not too logical -- predictable. Your problem doesn't seem to be the size of the bounding box, but rather the placement of the string inside that box. The coordinates returned by the function tell you how much space you need on every side of your initial coordinates. If you get a negative value for the lower right X coordinate, for example, you need to push the string coordinates for ImageTTFText that much forward in order to get the string to fit the image. Fiddle with it, and contact me if the problem persists. The behaviour is a feature of FreeType, and we can do very little about it. Full Bug description available at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=1987
