GD Image Help

[Deserteye]

I need help on this script:

[code]<?php

header ("Content-type: image/png");

$image = imagecreatefrompng("project.png");

$color = imagecolorallocate($image, 255, 255, 255);
$font = imageloadfont("verdana.ttf");
$string = "Text here";


imagestring($image, $font, 9, 10, $string, $color);

imagepng($image);
imagedestroy($image);

?>[/code]

It gives me an error saying there is something wrong with it. The problem is that when I try to load the font (imageloadfont()), thats when it gives me an error. But when I take the imageloadfont() function out, its ok but the font looks bad. So how do I load the verdana font?

Can you verify that the font exists?  Make sure it is case sensitive.

imageloadfont() is expecting a .gdf file. You're probably looking for imagettftext().

I tried that as well and I got an error too.

Yes the verdana.ttf does exist.

[Hi I Am Timbo]

is it verdana.ttf or Verdana.ttf?  You have said both now.

[Hi I Am Timbo]

Do you get an error with the new function?  What is it?

The image “http://www.thesite.com/project.php” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

[Hi I Am Timbo]

If you try and navigate to the image, what error does that give you?

[Hi I Am Timbo]

I bet that is when you navigate there, nevermind. 

Can you var_dump the result?

[b]edit[/b]I mean, catch what the imagettftext() is returning and var_dump that.

Can we see the code you tried with imagettftext()?
