Примеры
Пример #1 Пример использования imagestring()
<?php
// Создание изображения 100*30
$im = imagecreate(100, 30);
// Белый фон, синий текст
$bg = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
$textcolor = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 255);

If you find that you are getting two characters on the end of your imageString that look like a Y and an upside down L then they're probably representations of CR/LF. Try trim()ing the string before outputting it. (I was sooo sure this was a bug <g>)
Width ImageString, the strings you draw are not automatically wrapped width the edge of the image. You may use this function to automatically wrap them:
function ImageStringWrap($image, $font, $x, $y, $text, $color, $maxwidth)
{
$fontwidth = ImageFontWidth($font);
$fontheight = ImageFontHeight($font);
if ($maxwidth != NULL) {
$maxcharsperline = floor($maxwidth / $fontwidth);
$text = wordwrap($text, $maxcharsperline, "\n", 1);
}
$lines = explode("\n", $text);
while (list($numl, $line) = each($lines)) {
ImageString($image, $font, $x, $y, $line, $color);
$y += $fontheight;
}
}
So, in particular, if you want to wrap a text with the edge of the Image, you may do:
ImageStringWrap($img, $font, 0, $y, $text, $color, ImageSX($img) );
When setting the font, any integer less than 1 defaults to 1, and any integer greater than 5 defaults to 5.
A simple example:
To make one line of text fit in the image.
<?php
header ("Content-type: image/png");
$string = "spam@mvoncken.nl";
$font = 4;
$width = ImageFontWidth($font) * strlen($string);
$height = ImageFontHeight($font);
$im = @imagecreate ($width,$height);
$background_color = imagecolorallocate ($im, 255, 255, 255); //white background
$text_color = imagecolorallocate ($im, 0, 0,0);//black text
imagestring ($im, $font, 0, 0, $string, $text_color);
imagepng ($im);
?>
I use something like this for spamprotection of my visitors (pass userid as an url-parameter for this php)
Drawing a string as an image is a handy way to disguise an eMail address so spam sniffers can't get it as easily. The only catch to creating a dynamic image with your eMail in it is the eMail to be displayed must be passed via the query string to enable static HTML to use it. So, the eMail must be encrypted slightly in order to not defeat the purpose of not typing your eMail address outright. I wrote the following script to do so:
Save the following as email.php
<?php
if ($_GET['addr'] != "") {
$msg = $_GET['addr'];
$msg = preg_replace("/\[dot]/",".",$msg);
$msg = preg_replace("/\[at]/","@",$msg);
$final = "";
for ($i=0; $i<=strlen($msg); $i++) {
$final .= substr($msg, strlen($msg)-$i, 1);
}
$msg = $final;
$char_width = 8;
$char_height = 17;
$padding = 3;
$width = $padding*2+strlen($msg)*$char_width;
$height = +$padding*2+$char_height;
$im = imagecreatetruecolor($width,$height);
imagealphablending($im, FALSE);
imagesavealpha($im, TRUE);
$bg = imagecolorallocatealpha($im, 255, 255, 0, 100);
$text = imagecolorallocatealpha($im, 0, 0, 0, 0);
imagefilledrectangle ($im, 0, 0, $width, $height, $bg); # Make transparent
imagestring($im, 4, $padding, $padding, $msg, $text);
} else {
$im = imagecreatetruecolor(1,1);
imagealphablending($im, FALSE);
imagesavealpha($im, TRUE);
$bg = imagecolorallocatealpha($im, 255, 0, 0, 125);
imagefilledrectangle ($im, 0, 0, 1, 1, $bg); # Make transparent
}
header('Content-type: image/jpg');
imagepng($im);
imagedestroy($im);
?>
If the script is called without an eMail address, it outputs a 2x2 transparent image.
To call the script to generate the eMail "user@home.com", the HTML tag would be:
<img src="email.php?addr=moc[dot]emoh[at]resu">
To 'encrypt' the eMail address to pass to the script, write the address backwards and replace "." with "[dot]" and "@" with "[at]". It's not the most ironclad protection, but it thwarts most casual eMail sniffers.
//simple hello world
<?
header ("Content-type: image/png");
$img_handle = ImageCreate (200, 20) or die ("Cannot Create image");
$back_color = ImageColorAllocate ($img_handle, 0, 10, 10);
$txt_color = ImageColorAllocate ($img_handle, 235, 235, 51);
ImageString ($img_handle, 10, 25, 5, "Hello world!", $txt_color);
ImagePng ($img_handle);
?>
If you are looking to center the text, use the following function; I'm not promising perfection...
function imagecenteredstring ( &$img, $font, $xMin, $xMax, $y, $str, $col ) {
$textWidth = imagefontwidth( $font ) * strlen( $str );
$xLoc = ( $xMax - $xMin - $textWidth ) / 2 + $xMin + $font;
imagestring( $img, $font, $xLoc, $y, $str, $col );
}
My version of the centered string, it decreases the font number (since I've noticed smaller numbers are smaller fonts) until 1 if the string won't fit. Then it will give up.
<?php
function imagestringcentered ($img,$font,$cy,$text,$color) {
while (strlen($text) * imagefontwidth($font) > imagesx($img)) {
if ($font > 1) { $font--; }
else { break; }
}
imagestring($img,$font,imagesx($img) / 2 - strlen($text) * imagefontwidth($font) / 2,$cy,$text,$color);
}
?>
Based on the previous example, here's how to center a string both horizontally and vertically...
<?php
function imagestringcentered ($img,$font,$text,$color) {
while (strlen($text) * imagefontwidth($font) > imagesx($img)) {
if ($font > 1) { $font--; }
else { break; }
}
$cy = (imagesy($img)/2) - (imagefontwidth($font)/2);
imagestring($img,$font,imagesx($img) / 2 - strlen($text) * imagefontwidth($font) / 2,$cy,$text,$color);
}
?>
This code produces a png image of the text within the query. It autofits to the length of the string.
Usage: http://yoursite.com/text.php?abcdefg+hijk
Use + to produce a space in the image. The + can be excaped with a carat (^). Most other symbols work fine in the query string, like the ?.
<?php
header ("Content-type: image/png");
$string = $_ENV["QUERY_STRING"];
$md5 = md5($string); //just so we don't convert valid text into a +
$string = str_replace("^+", $md5, $string); //replaces ^+ with long, unnatural string
$string = str_replace("+", " ", $string); //replaces + with space
$string = str_replace($md5, "+", $string); //replaces the long, unnatural string with +
$width = imagefontwidth($font) * strlen($string);
$height = imagefontheight($font);
$image = @imagecreate($width+2, $height+2);
$black = imagecolorallocate($image, 0, 0, 0); //background
$white = imagecolorallocate($image, 255, 255, 255);
imagestring($image, 2, 1, 1, $string, $white);
imagepng($image);
imagedestroy($image);
?>
i modified the centering functions and created this which centers each word on it's own line. You can adjust the spacing with the $valign var. currently no implimentation if text is too large for image. strings are tokenized by space, but can obviously be changed.
function ImageStringWrap($image, $font, $text, $color)
{
$fontwidth = ImageFontWidth($font);
$fontheight = ImageFontHeight($font);
$words= str_word_count($text);
if ($words > 1){
$string=array(strtok($text,' '));
for ($i = 1 ; $i <= $words ; $i++){
$string=array_merge($string,array($i=>strtok(' ')));
}
}
else
$string=$text;
$vspace=4;
$y=((imagesy($image)-($fontheight*$words)-($words*$vspace))/2);
foreach($string as $st){
$x=((imagesx($image)-($fontwidth * strlen($st)))/2);
ImageString($image,$font,$x,$y,$st,$color);
$y+=($fontheight+$vspace);
}
}
hope this is helpful
There is an error in "tjpoe at cableaz dot com" 's function ImageStringWrap. Instead of
else
$string = $text;
there should be
else
$string = array($text);
for function to work for strings with only one word. Otherwise it works like a charm, thanks.
If you are looking for a way to generate a "CAPTCHA" image for a form verification (to verify it is not a robot), have a look at this : http://blog.theoconcept.com/static/distortion/
It gives an animated image with the parameter string, with distortion, here is an example :
http://blog.theoconcept.com/static/distortion/distortion.php
(*) You'll need GD + Freetype support
(**) You'll need ImageMagick on the machine
hello, I noticed that if you put a rand(3,5) it will put random sizes of font to each character put on the image. this is very useful when programming captchas for anti-spam form verification.
Here's a simple function for creating an aligned string which is cutted to match the space between $x1 and $x2
<?php
function imagestringcutted($img,$font,$y,$x1,$x2,$text,$color,$align="center") {
$fontwidth = imagefontwidth($font);
$fullwidth = strlen($text) * $fontwidth;
$maxwidth = $x2-$x1;
$targetwidth = $fullwidth-(4*$fontwidth);
if($fullwidth > $maxwidth) {
for($i = 0; $i < strlen($text) AND ((strlen($text)-($i-4))*$fontwidth) > $targetwidth ;$i++) { }
$text = substr($text,0,(strlen($text)-$i)-4)."...";
}
if($align == "left") imagestring($img,$font,$x1,$y,$text,$color);
elseif($align == "right") imagestring($img,$font,$x2 - ((strlen($text) * $fontwidth)),$y,$text,$color);
else imagestring($img,$font,($x2-$x1)/ 2 - strlen($text) * $fontwidth / 2,$y,$text,$color);
}
?>
Usage:
<?php
imagestringcutted($img,$font,$y,$x1,$x2,$text,$color,$align);
?>
Will create a string $text, which is cutted if it's too long to match between $x1 and $2, on $img with font $font and color $color at height $y and with align to $align.
Hope it will help some people.
Sorry for my bad English.
The built-in fonts used to be in latin-2 (iso8859-2) encoding. For some time, they are in latin-1 (iso8859-1) encoding. There is no way to change the encoding at all. If you need to use any other encoding, you have to use TrueType fonts.
I've made a little modification of the (quite usefull) imagestringcutted function (when align=center, it doesn't work well for me if x1!=0) so juste replace the last line with :
<?php
[...]
else imagestring($img,$font,$x1+($x2-$x1)/ 2 - strlen($text) * $fontwidth / 2,$y,$text,$color);
}
?>
I like this better than "tjpoe at cableaz dot com"'s function for wrapping text to fit width (auto-adjusts height as needed) since it doesn't only do 1 word per line.
function make_wrapped_txt($txt, $color=000000, $space=4, $font=4, $w=300) {
if (strlen($color) != 6) $color = 000000;
$int = hexdec($color);
$h = imagefontheight($font);
$fw = imagefontwidth($font);
$txt = explode("\n", wordwrap($txt, ($w / $fw), "\n"));
$lines = count($txt);
$im = imagecreate($w, (($h * $lines) + ($lines * $space)));
$bg = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
$color = imagecolorallocate($im, 0xFF & ($int >> 0x10), 0xFF & ($int >> 0x8), 0xFF & $int);
$y = 0;
foreach ($txt as $text) {
$x = (($w - ($fw * strlen($text))) / 2);
imagestring($im, $font, $x, $y, $text, $color);
$y += ($h + $space);
}
header('Content-type: image/jpeg');
die(imagejpeg($im));
}
// Example of use...
// This is a simple function to output text to an image
// which is centered (as much as I want to do by eye)
// and wrapped

function imageCenterString( $imgw, $imgh,

{
$im = imagecreate( $imgw, $imgh );

$x = imagesx($img) - $width - 8;
$y = Imagesy($img) - ($num[$font][1] + 2);
imagestring($img, $font, $x/2, $y/2, $text, $color);

Optional parameters:
font_size: 1 to 5, with the default at 3
R/G/B: the font color, in hex.
Usage:
<img src="stringtoimg.php?string=<?= urlencode(base64_encode($email)) ?>&font_size=4&R=FF&G=FF&B=00">
<?php

Creates a box of text. Has horizontal and vertical alignment, box arguments, and custom leading. I submitted this to the manual in 2003 actually, but it disappeared after a year or so (not sure why). Here it is again.

If you have any problem with CentralEurope's words, for example : ľščťžýáíéúäňôď, I am try this problem by iconv() function.
<?php
// create example image
$im = imagecreate(200, 20);
$bg = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
$textcolor = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 255);
$text = "ľščťžýáíéúäňôď...";
//simple convert string
$string = iconv("Windows-1250", "Latin2", $text);
// write converted string at the top left
imagestring($im, 4, 0, 0, $string, $textcolor);
// output the image
header("Content-type: image/png");
imagepng($im);
?>
this is a function that is based on imagestring but it produces text in the center of an image i hope it helps :D
<?php
function ImageStringCenter($image_resource, $font_size, $line_number, $total_lines, $text, $color ) {
$center_x = ceil( ( imagesx($image_resource) - ( ImageFontWidth($font_size) * strlen($text) ) ) / 2 );
$center_y = ceil( ( ( imagesy($image_resource) - ( ImageFontHeight($font_size) * $total_lines ) ) / 2) + ( ($line_number-1) * ImageFontHeight($font_size) ) );
ImageString($image_resource, $font_size, $center_x, $center_y, $text, $color );
}
?>

Have fun :)
I created an alternative using the function imagechar to create a string of an image. The below function below was used to create an image the same height and width of the text string. It is used on my website to mask users email addresses.
<?PHP
// Set your string somehow
$string = 'your@example.com';
// Set font size
$font_size = 4;
// Create image width dependant on width of the string
$width = imagefontwidth($font_size)*strlen($string);
// Set height to that of the font
$height = imagefontheight($font_size);
// Create the image pallette
$img = imagecreate($width,$height);
// Grey background
$bg = imagecolorallocate($img, 25, 25, 25);
// White font color
$color = imagecolorallocate($img, 255, 255, 255);
// Length of the string
$len = strlen($string);
// Y-coordinate of character, X changes, Y is static
$ypos = 0;
// Loop through the string
for($i=0;$i<$len;$i++){
// Position of the character horizontally
$xpos = $i * imagefontwidth($font_size);
// Draw character
imagechar($img, $font_size, $xpos, $ypos, $string, $color);
// Remove character from string
$string = substr($string, 1);
}
// Return the image
header("Content-Type: image/gif");
imagegif($img);
// Remove image
imagedestroy($img);
?>
Same function as above but it can display multi-line strings.
<?php
function sendimagetext($text) {
// Set font size
$font_size = 4;
$ts=explode("\n",$text);
$width=0;
foreach ($ts as $k=>$string) { //compute width
$width=max($width,strlen($string));
}
// Create image width dependant on width of the string
$width = imagefontwidth($font_size)*$width;
// Set height to that of the font
$height = imagefontheight($font_size)*count($ts);
$el=imagefontheight($font_size);
$em=imagefontwidth($font_size);
// Create the image pallette
$img = imagecreatetruecolor($width,$height);
// Dark red background
$bg = imagecolorallocate($img, 0xAA, 0x00, 0x00);
imagefilledrectangle($img, 0, 0,$width ,$height , $bg);
// White font color
$color = imagecolorallocate($img, 255, 255, 255);
foreach ($ts as $k=>$string) {
// Length of the string
$len = strlen($string);
// Y-coordinate of character, X changes, Y is static
$ypos = 0;
// Loop through the string
for($i=0;$i<$len;$i++){
// Position of the character horizontally
$xpos = $i * $em;
$ypos = $k * $el;
// Draw character
imagechar($img, $font_size, $xpos, $ypos, $string, $color);
// Remove character from string
$string = substr($string, 1);
}
}
// Return the image
header("Content-Type: image/png");
imagepng($img);
// Remove image
imagedestroy($img);
}
?>
Here is a small bit I made for writing to a image from right to left when you are limited to imagestring()
<?php
$pageview_letters = preg_split('//', $string, -1 ); // Form are original array of letters.
$minus = 6; // The letter spacing in pixels
$first = true; // Whether or not we have started the string
$x = 375; // X Location of imagestring
$y = 23; // Y Location of imagestring
$letters = array(); // Initiate the array o letters.
foreach ( $pageview_letters as $letter ) {
$letters[] = $letter;
}
$letters = array_reverse( $letters );
foreach ( $letters as $letter ) {
if ( $first ) {
imagestring( $image, 2, $x, $y, $letter, $light_blue );
$first = false;
} else {
$x = ( $x - $minus );
imagestring( $image, 2, $x, $y, $letter, $light_blue );
}
}
?>
Here is a function with similar declaration of imagestring() but who handles whitespaces (It creates new lines and 4 spaces instead of \n and \t) and image's size limits
<?php
/**
* @author Booteille
*
* @param resource $image
* @param int $font
* @param int $x
* @param int $y
* @param string $string
* @param int $color
*/
function whitespaces_imagestring($image, $font, $x, $y, $string, $color) {
$font_height = imagefontheight($font);
$font_width = imagefontwidth($font);
$image_height = imagesy($image);
$image_width = imagesx($image);
$max_characters = (int) ($image_width - $x) / $font_width ;
$next_offset_y = $y;
for($i = 0, $exploded_string = explode("\n", $string), $i_count = count($exploded_string); $i < $i_count; $i++) {
$exploded_wrapped_string = explode("\n", wordwrap(str_replace("\t", " ", $exploded_string[$i]), $max_characters, "\n"));
$j_count = count($exploded_wrapped_string);
for($j = 0; $j < $j_count; $j++) {
imagestring($image, $font, $x, $next_offset_y, $exploded_wrapped_string[$j], $color);
$next_offset_y += $font_height;
if($next_offset_y >= $image_height - $y) {
return;
}
}
}
}
?>
// Convert e-mail to image (png)
function convertEmailToImg ($aValue, $aRed, $aGreen, $aBlue, $aAlphaF=0, $aAlphaB=127, $aFontSize=4)
{

imagesavealpha ($img, true);
imagefill ($img, 0, 0, imagecolorallocatealpha ($img, 0, 0, 0, $aAlphaB));
imagestring ($img, $aFontSize, 0, 0, $aValue, imagecolorallocatealpha ($img, $aRed, $aGreen, $aBlue, $aAlphaF));
ob_start ();
imagepng ($img);
imagedestroy ($img);
return base64_encode (ob_get_clean ());
}
// Example
$imgString= convertEmailToImg ('contact@example.com', 0, 0, 255, 0, 127, 4);
