Hi, I have just upgraded my PHP from 403pl1 to 4.0.6 and some problems appeared. My scripts which use php_gd.dll for generating PNG images with user defined text are not working. Every time I try to launch my script I receive this error: "Warning: Could not find/open font in D:\CustomerWebs\www\test\fonts" I studied the PHP manual and discovered that some FREETYPE library is needed for working with ttf fonts and GD together. But it WORKED in PHP 403 without freetype library.. I checked out a lot of sites and I have found no binary of freetype.dll suitable for PHP.. Why isn't it included in distribution pack of PHP406Win32? I have downloaded source codes of freetype 2 from www.freetype.org but as non-C user I'm not able to compile this. Is anybody able to help me or send me working copy of freetype.dll etc...? In other case i have to downgrade to older version of PHP to resolve me troubles.. Thanks Martin
