It is impossible to use this function with a TrueType (.ttf) fonts.You need to convert font to PostScript Type1 (.pfb) on your own (google - there are free converters too)

Just for the less experienced PHP-Hackers, like me ;-) …

header("Content-type: image/png");
$text = "hello world";
$val = 1.2;
$font = imagepsloadfont(" path to font ");
$im = imagecreate(200, 200);
$color_bg = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
$color_font = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);
imagefill($im, 0, 0, $color_font);

imagepsextendfont($font, $val);

$bound = imagepstext($im, $text, $font, 25, $color_bg, $color_font, 10, 100, 0, 0, 0, 4);
imagepng($im);
imagedestroy($im);
