Writing colored HTML formatted text to an image in PHP

Question

This is what I have so far.

It successfully writes the source to the image, but I want it to render as HTML and then write the HTML formatted string to the image.

This is what I want it to look like, but in image form.

Thanks for looking. I am so frustrated with this, haha.

Answer 1

I think there is only one way to print multi colored text by using the standard PHP GD and Image functios. You must print it by having a seperate imagestring call for each color.

This works only for monospace font types, where all the characters having the same size.

If you want something "prettier" you must be using some other way.
