Hi gang:
Call to undefined function imagettftext()
My first assumption was that the college did not have the GD library installed, but that was not true.
Using the following script:
<?php
echo('<pre>');
var_dump(gd_info());
echo('</pre>');
?>
On both servers produces:
College:
http://citw.lcc.edu/~sperlt/citw185/examples/a1.php
and
PHP1.net
http://php1.net/a1.php
I do see some differences in the settings, but I don't know if these are causing the error generated -- AND -- I do not know where I can go to change the GD settings IF that is needed.
Any suggestions as to what I should do -- or -- what is wrong?
Looking at your gd_info output you can see that your college server has:
["FreeType Support"]=>
bool(false)
And the "php1.net" one has:
["FreeType Support"]=>
bool(true)
The TTF in the imagettftext function name stands for TrueTypeFont which
is only supported in GD if PHP was compiled --with-freetype-dir=xxx or
--enable-gd-native-ttf. Clearly one was, and the other wasn't.
