Could not find/open font in xxxx

[lbrader]

Hi,

I have run into idiot situation. I have been learning PHP from PHP and MySql. No problem till now.

I keep getting the following warning for a font file.

"Warning : Could not find/open font in ".........

The calling code line is :

$bbox=imagettfbbox ($font_size, 0, "arial.ttf", $button_text);

The file is in the same directory as the php script. The PHP system
has TrueType set up.

I have written code tested to make sure it's there during
runtime and executable, readable writeable.

thoughts,

thanks in advance

I had the same problem.

I'm on Windows 2002 and I put this before using GD :
putenv('GDFONTPATH=c:\winnt\fonts');

Hmmmm, do I have to set the font path?

I'm using Linux. I'm searching for other examples. I'm
having problems with other font examples.
