Hi all This is my first attempt to wrie to this mailing list, so please bare with me. My problem is as follows I'm trying to generate a dynamic picture with some text on it. The code works fine on one of my servers, but not on the other one. The code I'm using: $im = imagecreatetruecolor (400, 100); $black = imagecolorallocate ($im, 0, 0, 0 ); $white = imagecolorallocate ($im, 255, 255, 255 ); imagerectangle ($im,0, 0,399,99 ,$black); imagefilledrectangle ($im,0, 0,399,99 ,$white); imagettftext ($im, 30, 0, 10, 40 , $black, TTF_DIR. "times.ttf", "Hello World!"); header ("Content-type: image/png" ); imagepng ($im); Where TTF_DIR is the complete path to the times.ttf-file (which i've chmodded to 777). This is the gd-info from where it works:
GD Support     enabled
GD Version     bundled (2.0.28 compatible)
FreeType Support     enabled
FreeType Linkage     with freetype
FreeType Version     2.1.3
GIF Read Support     enabled
GIF Create Support     enabled
JPG Support     enabled
PNG Support     enabled
WBMP Support     enabled
XBM Support     enabled
The one things that differs between the servers is:
"FreeType Linkage        with TTF library" is set on the faulty one. Can this be the problem?
