Hi, I've recently found a way out from that nasty php + win32 problem with
imagettftext() that can't find/open fontfile.
Apparently sth was compiled wrong, so that lib_gd2 bastart won't let anyone
override it's original path.
The solution is to put your ttf files into:
c:\winnt\fonts
dir
(that path is compiled into lib_gd2.dll)
so when you copy like arial.ttf there,
then all you need to do is use "arial" as the font parameter and it WORKS.
Enjoy :>
