sizegd.font.size

angleThe angle in degrees, with 0 degrees being left-to-right reading text. Higher values represent a counter-clockwise rotation. For example, a value of 90 would result in bottom-to-top reading text.

x The coordinates given by and will define the basepoint of the first character (roughly the lower-left corner of the character). This is different from the , where and define the upper-left corner of the first character. For example, "top left" is 0, 0. x``y``imagestring``x``y

yThe y-ordinate. This sets the position of the fonts baseline, not the very bottom of the character.

color The color index. Using the negative of a color index has the effect of turning off antialiasing. See . imagecolorallocate

textThe text string in UTF-8 encoding.

   May include decimal numeric character references (of the form:
   ) to access characters in a font beyond position 127.
   The hexadecimal format (like ) is supported.
   Strings in UTF-8 encoding can be passed directly.
  `€``©`


   Named entities, such as , are not supported. Consider using
   
   to decode these named entities into UTF-8 strings.
  `©``html_entity_decode`

If a character is used in the string which is not supported by the font, a hollow rectangle will replace the character.

options An array with key holding a value. linespacing``float

Returns an array with 8 elements representing four points making the bounding box of the text. The order of the points is lower left, lower right, upper right, upper left. The points are relative to the text regardless of the angle, so "upper left" means in the top left-hand corner when you see the text horizontally. Returns false on error.

Voorbeeld: example

This example script will produce a white PNG 400x30 pixels, with the words "Testing..." in black (with grey shadow), in the font Arial.

<?php

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

// Create the image
$im = imagecreatetruecolor(400, 30);

// 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, $font, $text);

// Add the text
imagettftext($im, 20, 0, 10, 20, $black, $font, $text);

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