(PHP 4 >= 4.0.7, PHP 5)
imagefttext — Write text to the image using fonts using FreeType 2
Description
Parameters
- image
-
An image resource, returned by one of the image creation functions, such as imagecreatetruecolor().
- size
-
The font size to use in points
- angle
-
The angle in degrees, with 0 degrees being left-to-right reading text. Higher values represent a counter-clockwise rotation. For example, a value of 90 would result in bottom-to-top reading text.
- x
-
The coordinates given by x and y will define the basepoint of the first character (roughly the lower-left corner of the character). This is different from the imagestring(), where x and y define the upper-left corner of the first character. For example, "top left" is 0, 0.
- y
-
The y-ordinate. This sets the position of the fonts baseline, not the very bottom of the character.
- color
-
The index of the desired color for the text, see imagecolorexact()
- font_file
-
The full path to the font being used.
- text
-
Text to be inserted into image.
- extrainfo
-
