I'm running Apache 1.3.6, PHP 3.0.9 built as a static module, GD 1.5 and libttf 1.2.

I built using:
./configure --with-pgsql --with-apache=../apache_1.3.6 --with-gd=/home/hplus/src/gd1.5

PS: I also had to add extra LDFLAGS and LIBS to the Apache config when doing this, as the config process doesn't do it for me. I also had to define HAVE_LIBTTF manually in config.h. Maybe that should be another bug report.

You are specifying an angle of 90 degrees for your type. In PHP3, that means the text angle is rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise from the default left-to-right angle (0?). Change the angle to 0. Does this fix your problem?

No, I tried 0 degrees first. It gives me mirror-imaged text drawn 
in the up->down direction, i e baseline goes out at 6 o'clock 
and characters extend towards 9 o'clock. The value 90 gives me a 
baseline extending to 9 o'clock and characters extending to 12 
o'clock, which is a vertical-axis mirror of what I really want, 
which is regular text (baseline 3 o'clock, characters 12 o'clock).

It seems that when I installed GD (version 1.5), configure wasn't 
smart enough to change HAVE_LIBGD13 from 0 to 1 (I had no GD at all 
before that). HAVE_LIBGD is also defined twice inside config.h.

Personally I'm no fan of autoconf :-) How about building everything 
as dynamic modules that get scanned at start time? Then you don't 
need to re-configure or re-build anything other than what you're 
adding.

Thank you to rasmus@php.net who zoomed in on the problem. (The build 
is still going, but it seems likely this was it).

That was it. It now works. Thank you.
