Give the bounding box of a text using fonts via freetype2

Descrição

array imageftbbox ( float $size , float $angle , string $fontfile , string $text [, array $extrainfo ] )

This function calculates and returns the bounding box in pixels for a FreeType text.

Parâmetros

size

The font size. Depending on your version of GD, this should be specified as the pixel size (GD1) or point size (GD2).

angle

Angle in degrees in which text will be measured.

fontfile

The name of the TrueType font file (can be a URL). Depending on which version of the GD library that PHP is using, it may attempt to search for files that do not begin with a leading '/' by appending '.ttf' to the filename and searching along a library-defined font path.

text

The string to be measured.

extrainfo

Possible array indexes for *`extrainfo`*
Key	Type	Meaning
linespacing	float	Defines drawing linespacing

Valor Retornado

imageftbbox() returns an array with 8 elements representing four points making the bounding box of the text:

0	lower left corner, X position
1	lower left corner, Y position
2	lower right corner, X position
3	lower right corner, Y position
4	upper right corner, X position
5	upper right corner, Y position
6	upper left corner, X position
7	upper left corner, Y position

The points are relative to the text regardless of the angle, so "upper left" means in the top left-hand corner seeing the text horizontally.

Exemplos

Exemplo #1 imageftbbox() example


<?php
// Create a 300x150 image
$im = imagecreatetruecolor(300, 150);
$black = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);
$white = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);

// Set the background to be white
imagefilledrectangle($im, 0, 0, 299, 299, $white);

// Path to our font file
$font = './arial.ttf';

// First we create our bounding box
$bbox = imageftbbox(10, 0, $font, 'The PHP Documentation Group');

// This is our cordinates for X and Y
$x = $bbox[0] + (imagesx($im) / 2) - ($bbox[4] / 2) - 5;
$y = $bbox[1] + (imagesy($im) / 2) - ($bbox[5] / 2) - 5;

imagefttext($im, 10, 0, $x, $y, $black, $font, 'The PHP Documentation Group');

// Output to browser
header('Content-Type: image/png');

imagepng($im);
imagedestroy($im);
?>
