Subject: [php5-gd] ImageTTFText does not render any string

Date: Sun, 30 Mar 2008 17:45:03 +0200

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: php5-gd
Version: 5.2.5-3
Severity: normal

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

The following code only produces a black box without any text in it on
two of my machines .

<?php
header ("Content-type: image/gif");
$im = imagecreate (400, 30);
$black = imagecolorallocate ($im, 20, 20, 20);
$white = imagecolorallocate ($im, 255, 200, 255);
$x = imagettftext ($im, 80, 45, 10, 20, $white,
"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/FreeSansBold.ttf",
              "Test... ");
imagegif ($im);
imagedestroy ($im);
?>

This worked a few days ago !

php5 hasn't seen an update to unstable in almost a month... are you sure it's 
not a problem with something else you've upgraded recently?
