Use a full path.  Font handling was changed in GD along the way, so if you insist that it is a bug, report it to the GD people, not us.

Hello at php.net!

I experienced the same problem, but never before version 4.2.1 of php.
I'm running php on win32, and the described error only occured with the new gd2.dll part of 4.2.1 package. The gd2 within 4.2.0 worked well with imagettf (But denies to work with php 4.2.1). Absolute or relative path did make no difference.
I already wrote a mail to boutell.com, but if you can help solve the problem, please let me know.
Thanks a lot,
Dennis Heck
