Creating and image using an existing one

[cdechery]

I have to generate an image, using an already existing (JPG or PNG) as a base.

Said I have a model form and I would only fill it with the information in the previously configured xy positions.

How do I achieve that?

Some code samples (even very basic ones) would be great.

Thanks,
Christian

You may want to look at the image functions for PHP/GD in the manual. You can find it here.

start reading the comments in the php manual about "imagecopy"

general:you will find in the manual for the most of the php functions expamples inside the user comments.
