Description:
------------
We've got a problem during generating images with the function imagefttext. It does not accept floated font sizes (as written in your documentation) any more, in our example "9.2". The generated image with size "9.2" is the same then generating this image with font-size "9", "9.3", "9.6", etc.

Our developing-system still runs with PHP 5.1.2. At this system the function imagefttext works fine as written in your documentation and accepts floated font sizes (see excepted result).

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
// ### Generate Image
header("Content-type: image/png");
$imgNew = imagecreatetruecolor(200, 40);
$colorTake = imagecolorallocate($imgNew, 255, 255, 255);
imagefttext($imgNew, 8.9, 0, 5, 19, $colorTake, "/wwwroot/_cvs_users_smb/hpu/Schatz/images/generated/source/arialbd.ttf", strtoupper($sTextConform));
imagepng($imgNew);
?>

Expected result:
----------------
Generated image with PHP v5.1.2:
http://www.portunity.net/tmp/imagefttext-image-v5_1_2.png

Actual result:
--------------
Generated image with PHP v5.2.6:

It is not related to the floating point size but to the freetype version you are using, how it is built etc.

Also, we do not support debian's php and I do not support Debian's gd as the maintainer of this package made insane choices (BC breaks) and did not fix security issues.

I would suggest to try with a source install and freetype 2.3.x (or with the same version you use on your dev platform) and paste the link to the result here. I also need the details of your config (php and freetype version used).
