Greetings. I've asked my ISP to install FreeFont for me, and they're having a heck of a time getting it to work. Does anyone have any ideas? Here's what tech support there is telling me: ---------------------------------------------------------------- The FreeFont was just impossible to install. I had to remove it completely because Apache and gd would not compile (separately or together) without errors if FF was anywhere detectable. Something is not compatible. Here are the versions: Apache 1.3.12 PHP 4.0.2 GD 1.8.3 FreeType 2beta8 I tried the last 3 with older versions in different combinations, but at one point, the entire httpd became crippled for a few hours. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I would REALLY appreciate any help you can give me, either from your own experiences or by telling me where I might look for an answer. Thanks in advance, Kenn Murrah www.eprintdata.com
