Hello,

I want to put special characters (german umlauts) into an image.
I use imagettftext() and the string "( ä ü ö xx Ä Ü Ö ß ) without blanks ( äüöxxÄÜÖß )".
If i put an blank around the characters it works without blanks there squares.
You see the result on:

I tried the same on different machines (i386) under different OS (NetBSD 1.6, NetBSD 3.0.1, NetBSD 3.1)
and different php versions.

You may find the output of phpinfo of our testserver under:
http://heisenberg.rmroppert.com/test/phpinfo1.pdf

I think this is an problem of th built-in version of gd. Perhaps the image is correct if i use perl and gnuplot.

So does anyone know what can i do to solve the problem?
How do i use an external version of gd in php for testing?

Best regards
Reinhold
