PHP - imagettftext not working and GD installed

问题:

It's being long hours that I'm still looking for answer to this problem.. All the solutions I find are around catching the font name but I am pretty sure this isn't my problem.

It looks like GD is installed

array(11) {
  ["GD Version"]=>
  string(27) "bundled (**2.0.34 compatible**)"
  ["FreeType Support"]=>
  bool(false)
  ["T1Lib Support"]=>
  bool(false)
  ["GIF Read Support"]=>
  bool(true)
  ["GIF Create Support"]=>
  bool(true)
  ["JPEG Support"]=>
  bool(true)
  ["PNG Support"]=>
  bool(true)
  ["WBMP Support"]=>
  bool(true)
  ["XPM Support"]=>
  bool(true)
  ["XBM Support"]=>
  bool(true)
  ["JIS-mapped Japanese Font Support"]=>
  bool(false)
}

Above you can see my GD support. My PHP version is 5.3 and I'm running on Linux.

I have tried few different code examples from different websites and none works. ImageString does work for me but I need to get imagettftext to work..

This is the last code I have tried now-

<?php
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
error_reporting(E_ALL);

// Set the content-type
header('Content-Type: image/png');

// Create the image
$im = imagecreatetruecolor(400, 100) or die("Can't create image!");

// Create some colors
$white = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
$grey = imagecolorallocate($im, 128, 128, 128);
$black = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);
imagefilledrectangle($im, 0, 0, 399, 29, $white);

// The text to draw
$text = 'Testing';
// Replace path by your own font path
$font = 'arial.ttf';

// Add some shadow to the text
imagettftext($im, 20, 0, 11, 21, $grey, 'arial.ttf', $text);

// Add the text
imagettftext($im, 20, 0, 10, 20, $black, 'arial.ttf', $text);

// Using imagepng() results in clearer text compared with imagejpeg()
imagepng($im);
imagedestroy($im);
?>

Had the same problem, with FreeType installed, solution was

 $font = "./Arial.ttf"; // <--- put ./ in front of filename

回答2:

Notice you don't have Free Type installed:

["FreeType Support"]=>
  bool(false)

This function requires both the GD library and the » FreeType library.

You will need to install Free Type library before you can use this function.

try installing these package:s freetype, freetype-devel

If you compiled PHP you can make sure you added enabled freetype during compile time:

--with-freetype-dir=/usr/include/freetype2/ --with-freetype

Or if you using something such as YUM or APT-GET it should be really simple to install those libraries, and a quick search ob google with get you started.

Well i also got problem around

$font='arial.tff'; 

I think you should provide absolute path to the $font like

$font="c:/windows/fonts/arial.ttf";

i assume you are a windows user. and remove

header('Content-Type:image/png');

to get the real error

Andrew is right, the php manual for imagettftext states FreeType is required to use imagettftext, imagettfbox, and others. Most people the GD devel package will install FreeType automatically:

Fedora/Redhat:

yum install gd gd-devel php-gd

Debian/Ubuntu:

apt-get install php5-gd libgd2-xpm libgd2-xpm-dev

This error was probably in your logs:

PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function imageTTFText()
