   (PHP 3, PHP 4 )
   imageloadfont -- Load a new font

Description

   int imageloadfont ( string file)

   imageloadfont() loads a user-defined bitmap font and returns an
   identifier for the font (that is always greater than 5, so it will not
   conflict with the built-in fonts).

   The font file format is currently binary and architecture dependent.
   This means you should generate the font files on the same type of CPU
   as the machine you are running PHP on.

   Table 1. Font file format
   byte position C data type description
   byte 0-3 int number of characters in the font
   byte 4-7 int value of first character in the font (often 32 for space)
   byte 8-11 int pixel width of each character
   byte 12-15 int pixel height of each character
   byte 16- char array with character data, one byte per pixel in each
   character, for a total of (nchars*width*height) bytes.

   See also imagefontwidth() and imagefontheight().
