note 20840 added to function.imagepsbbox

When using imagepsbbox, you are probably trying to do something like creating a button with text, so that the button is large enough for the text... Below is a very simple example of making a black button just big enough to display white text on it. <?php //if text is no variable set sample text if (!$text) $text = "This is a sample text"; // set the font size $fontsize=14; // load the font to use $font=ImagePsLoadFont("/fonts/ariam___.pfb"); //get the left lower corner and the right upper list($lx,$ly,$rx,$ry) = imagepsbbox($text,$font,$fontsize,0,0,0); // calculate the size of the text $textwidth = $rx - $lx; $textheight = $ry - $ly; // make an image 40 pixels wider and 20 pixels higher than the text $imh = $textheight + 20; $imw = $textwidth + 40; $im = imageCreate( $imw, $imh ); //define colors, first color is used as background color! $black = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 0, 0, 0); $white = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 255, 255, 255); //create the text (with the same parameters as imagepsbbox!) ImagePSText ($im, "$text", $font, $fontsize, $white, $white, 20, 20,'','','',4); //send the header header("Content-type: image/jpeg"); // create the image ImageJPEG ($im,"",100); //destroy the image & font to free memory Imagepsfreefont ( $font ); ImageDestroy ( $im ); ?> -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.imagepsbbox.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+20840 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+20840 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+20840
