Help/text2pngPlugin

Convert text into a png image using GD without using WikiPluginCached. The images are stored in a private <PHPWIKI_DIR>/images/<LANG> subdirectory instead, which are not timestamp checked at all. Delete the .png file(s) if you change anything.

This is a really simple and stupid plugin, which might need some work.

Usage

  <?plugin text2png text="some text" ?>

Arguments

text
some text to display
lang
language subdirectory
_force
set to 1 to recreate the image
fontsize
18. with GD1 it's the pixelsize, with GD2 the pointsize
with_shadow
1
fontcolor
  1. 000000
shadowcolor
  1. AFAFAF
backcolor
  1. ffffff

Configurable Options

See the sourcecode. You'd probably need to adjust $ttfont and text2png_debug.

Example

<?plugin text2png text='Hello WikiWorld!' ?>

would produce:

Hello WikiWorld!
