gd library text formatting code

[D_Murphy]

Hello,

I am wondering if there is a way using the gd library to make generated images with text be bold or underlined or italic or any other formating options.

Is it at all possible?

If so can ya help a guy out with the code :)

Thank you
D. Murphy

here is my result code

Basicaly i want a way to make it so if a check box is ticked then it will make the text output bold

return $result;
}
//echo $color;
//echo substr($color,0,2);
$r = hextodes(substr($color,0,2));
$g = hextodes(substr($color,2,2));
$b = hextodes(substr($color,4,2));
//$user_width = imagettfbbox(9, 0,$font['font_url'], $text);
//$x_value = (200 - ($user_width[2] + 101));
//echo $b;
$color = imagecolorallocate($im,$r,$g,$b);
imagettftext($im, $height, $angle , $x, $y, $color, $font['font_url'], $text);
imagepng($im);
header('Content-type: ' . image_type_to_mime_type(IMAGETYPE_WBMP));
image2wbmp($im); 
imagedestroy($im);
?>

I think you are going to have to use another font--a bolder one--to achieve this. You can also change the color of the text.

>>or italic

Check out imagepsslantfont [us3.php.net].

Anyway, I wish you luck. You may be able to find something at [phpclasses.org...] that does what you want.
