<?
//put your html code here
$html_code = "
<html>
<head>
<title>My test title</title>
<style>
body {
font-family:verdana;
font-size:11px;
color:black
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
this is the body
</body>
</html>";# Create the image
$img = imagecreate("300", "600");
imagecolorallocate($img,0,0,0);
$c = imagecolorallocate($img,70,70,70);
imageline($img,0,0,300,600,$c2);
imageline($img,300,0,0,600,$c2);$white = imagecolorallocate($img, 255, 255, 255);
imagettftext($img, 9, 0, 1, 1, $white, "VERDANA.TTF", $html_code);# Display the image
header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
imagejpeg($img);?>
The result is here [php-developers.net]
Regarding the font type - I just take the verdata.ttf from my computer and uploaded to the server.
Hint: do not use "\t", but just put a few blank spaces. Else, you will see some bad symbols at the result image.
May be you can get some better results if you consult the php manual about imagecreate functions.
I think ebizcamp wants to take the processed HTML and images in the way that they'd be viewed in a browser and capture that to an image, not the HTML code itself.
Maybe youre looking for the opensource project called 'thumbshots'.
Thumbshots.org does provide free thumbshots for DMOZ website but not free for non-DMOZ website. But I now think a 25$/month price is a better bargain than to hire people write codes implementing that function.
