ttf trouble

[jdriskill]

Hello all,

When I use the following code:

$image = ImageCreate(300, 300);
$black = ImageColorAllocate($image, 0, 0, 0);
ImageTTFText($image, 30, 0, 20, 10, $black, "myfont.ttf" , "test");
ImagePng($image);
ImageDestroy($image);

I get the following output:

‰PNG IHDR,,C³6PLTE§z=Ú"IDATxœíÁ1 õOm ? x-´ft3dIEND®B`‚

any suggestions? I am using PHP 4.0.6. I notice that the --with-ttf option is not listed...but this seems like a rather un-graceful result for php...

Thanks in advance for your response.

Jeff

Do you have the header in it?

header ("Content-type: image/png");

If not, then the browser spits out the image as text.
