Call to undefined function imagettfbbox

Hi, I’m new here and I’m new to PHP…

I have a error: Call to undefined function imagettfbbox

this is a dynamic signature PHP script. I’ve tested my server host website with secure image and here is the result:

This script will test your PHP installation to see if Securimage will run on your server.

GD Support: Yes!
GD Version: bundled (2.0.34 compatible)
TTF Support (FreeType): No
No FreeType support. Cannot use TTF fonts, but you can use GD fonts
JPEG Support: Yes!
PNG Support: Yes!
GIF Read Support: Yes!
GIF Create Support: Yes!

since TTF FreeType is not installed and I cannot use TTF fonts but GD Fonts can be…

How do I change the script to work with GD fonts?

here’s the PHP script

Thanks in advance

imagettfbbox function requires both the GD library and the » FreeType library.

GD Support: Yes!
GD Version: bundled (2.0.34 compatible)
TTF Support (FreeType): No   <----- This one
No FreeType support. Cannot use TTF fonts, but you can use GD fonts
JPEG Support: Yes!
PNG Support: Yes!
GIF Read Support: Yes!
GIF Create Support: Yes!

You have to install TTF fonts. Here is the download link.
http://freetype.sourceforge.net/download.html#stable
Just pick which server to download it to.

How do I install this in webhosted server?

sorry for my ignorance, im really new to this stuff. :frowning:

On a webhost I think you will have to get in contact with them and ask them to do it for you.

I tried to contact them they said it was installed in bundled PHP

"Unfortanetly Cpanel doesn't give us this option to install, It only provides the option for GD with it already included "

thats what the server hosting said.

Sorry, I cant offer you anymore suggestions. Maybe someone else here can.

ayt no prob I understand… thank for the help and reply.
