Re: true type font in GD::Graph

Its been a while since I last looked at fonts in GD. I have an old piece of code that says:

#        $image->stringFT($line,'/dosc/windows/Fonts/arialnb.ttf',
#                 12,0,
#                 $border+int($x),
#                 int($y),
#                     $name);
        $image->string(gdMediumBoldFont,
               int($x)-$x_offset,
               int($y),
               $name,$line);

My recollection is that the commented out stringFT() method worked OK but there was some other issue with it (finding fonts on other machines for example). So in the end I had to resort to the gd*Font set.

Hope that helps.
