Elenco dei parametri

image

Una risorsa immagine, restituita da una delle funzioni di creazione immagine, come imagecreatetruecolor().

font

Può essere 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 per i font interni con codifica latin2 (dove numeri più alti corrispondono a font più grandi) o qualsiasi identificatore di font registrato con imageloadfont().

x

x-coordinate of the start.

y

y-coordinate of the start.

char

The character to draw.

color

A color identifier created with imagecolorallocate().

Valori restituiti

Restituisce true in caso di successo, false in caso di fallimento.

Log delle modifiche

Versione Descrizione

$bg = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
$black = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);

// prints a black "P" in the top left corner
imagechar($im, 1, 0, 0, $string, $black);

For the sake of completeness, here is an example for imagechar.
The base-image automatically adjusts to the size and the height of the given string. Using the rand()-function the y-position of each char is slightly varied with every loop-run. You can easily rewrite the script to use a randomly generated string - the one given here just serves as an example.

<?php

$string
= '1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F G';
$font_size = 5;
$width=imagefontwidth($font_size)*strlen($string);
$height=imagefontheight($font_size)*2;
$img = imagecreate($width,$height);
$bg = imagecolorallocate($img,225,225,225);
$black = imagecolorallocate($img,0,0,0);
$len=strlen($string);

for(
$i=0;$i<$len;$i++)
{
$xpos=$i*imagefontwidth($font_size);
$ypos=rand(0,imagefontheight($font_size));
imagechar($img,$font_size,$xpos,$ypos,$string,$black);
$string = substr($string,1);

}
header("Content-Type: image/gif");
imagegif($img);
imagedestroy($img);
?>

A quick function to automatically generate a multi line image from a string, with the image size automatically calculated from the string itself.

<?php

function multilineimage($string){

// Probably not the best way of handling newlines, but bar OS9, doesn't really cause a problem
$string = str_replace("\r","",$string);
$string = explode("\n",$string);

$maxlen = 0;
foreach (
$string as $str){
if (
strlen($str) > $maxlen){
$maxlen = strlen($str);
}
}

// Set font size
$font_size = 4;

// Create image width dependant on width of the string
$width = imagefontwidth($font_size)*$maxlen;
// Set height to that of the font
$height = imagefontheight($font_size) * count($string);
// Create the image pallette
$img = imagecreate($width,$height);
// Grey background
$bg = imagecolorallocate($img, 205, 255, 255);
// White font color
$color = imagecolorallocate($img, 0, 0, 0);

$ypos = 0;

foreach (
$string as $str){

$len = strlen($str);
for(
$i=0;$i<$len;$i++){
// Position of the character horizontally
$xpos = $i * imagefontwidth($font_size);
// Draw character
imagechar($img, $font_size, $xpos, $ypos, $str, $color);
// Remove character from string
$str = substr($str, 1);
}
$ypos = $ypos + imagefontheight($font_size);
}

// Return the image
header("Content-Type: image/gif");
imagegif($img);
// Remove image
imagedestroy($img);
}

multilineimage("This is an image
This is line 2\nLine 3
Line 4"
);

?>
