I posted this in the Windows help forum, but didn't get a response, so I'm posting it here now too:
I've been having some problems getting GD to print out ttf text anti aliased, and through my research I've found that the reason is because GD is compiled with freetype1 on my machine (default php_gd2.dll file that comes with the windows binary install of PHP).
My problem is, I don't know how to compile GD2 with FreeType2. I've tried using borland gcc compiler to do the job, but have not had any success. Does anybody out there know either a) how to compile GD2 with FreeType2, b) know where a good tutorial is on how to do this, or c) have or know where I can download a .dll for GD2 with FreeType2 compiled with it?
If all else fails I'll probably end up reading all of the C tutorials I can find, and figure out how to get it to compile... and then write a tuturial for those out there having the same problem as me. But I don't really want to do that.
