Where can I find fonts compatible with GD?

Question

I use GD to display some text. The default font is Courier (or something similar) ... I want to use a different font, and I found this function: imageloadfont , which requires a .gdf file. I searched on Google to find out if I would find good fonts, but didn't find anything. I see a script there for converting a PNG file to GDF, but I can’t spend too much time, so I would like to know where I can get some beautiful fonts, or maybe there is another simpler way to do what I want to.

Answer 1

I have not seen the imagettftext function in the documentation. Thanks @Pekka for the tips. Finally, I just copied the consolas.ttf file in the same script directory and did:

imagettftext ( $image, 12, 0, 200, 100, 0, 'consolas.ttf' , "thanks!"); 

It works great.

Answer 2

Have you tried using the converter to convert the truetype font file to gdf?

Answer 3

Considering the beautiful formatting of the code sent by the cookie (so I can see it myself;):

 <div style="background:#ffffff;border:5pt solid #000000; color:#000000;padding:25px;border-radius:15px;"> <div> <a href="http://kr1.php.net/imagettftext">http://kr1.php.net/imagettftext</a> </div> </div> <div>an example...</div> <?php $str = "TESTING..."; @$i = imagecreate(strlen($str)*20+40,70) or die("FAILED..."); imagettftext($i,20,30,20,20,imagecolorallocatealpha($i,0,0,0,75),"굴림.ttf",$str) ?>

This question already has an accepted answer, but I use a useful link to get gdf fonts.

Sorry ... I couldn’t check ... but maybe right. 아 참고 로 난 중 2
