As soon as you "scale" an image, rounding errors are introduced... Take his source, maybe with a font 10 X bigger, and then using imagecolorat to examine each pixel in the original, and see if it's off... And, really, if drawing text with a 1-pixel error margin throws you off, you're in trouble anyway... Though the super dark 90-degree text versus the others with much larger variations in length is disconcerting, in your image, if those length calculations are correct... -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
