[Jawed]

Hi All,

I am getting this problem for one of my site that i am developing .

When I insert special characters string like thi's ~!@#$%^&*()_+| the code is unable to convert it into right image with all text on it when the chosen font in trajanpro.ttf, but when I change the font with Ariel it work's fine.

Click the text on card and a pop up will open and then change the font to Ariel then the image on card will be converted into right text.

 

The code is

 

imageSaveAlpha($image, true);

ImageAlphaBlending($image, false);

$bgcolor = imagecolorallocate($image, 200, 200, 200);

$transparentColor = imagecolorallocatealpha($image, 200, 200, 200, 127);

imagefill($image, 0, 0, $transparentColor);

// pick color for the text

$fontcolor = imagecolorallocate($image, $red, $grn, $blu);

 

// fill in the background with the background color

imagefilledrectangle($image, 0, 0, $width, $height, $transparentColor);

$x = 0;

$y = $fontsize;

imagettftext($image, $fontsize, 0, $bx, $by, $fontcolor, $font, $quote);

 

 

$final_image=DIR_USER_EDITOR.$new_image;

 

// output image to the browser

imagepng($image, $final_image);

 

// delete the image resource

imagedestroy($image);

 

Thanks in advance

Are these characters available in the font? Can you display them in any other application?

Thanks for the reply but i did not get your point,

If I change the font to Ariel or some other then it works fine.

My point is: can that font display those characters? The problem is the font not PHP

To verify, use the font in MsWord or other program, and try the characters. If that is the problem you can solve it easily. Buy the full version:
