Hello all PHP gurus

I have a small problem about loading fonts with imageloadfont()

I have copyed fonts with the extension .fon or .ttf to the same directory as
my script, and i give them the font as an argument:

$font = imageloadfont('arial.ttf');

But i just keep getting the message:
Warning: imageloadfont(): Error reading font in c:\program files\apache
group\apache\htdocs\gd_test.php on line 35

Does anyone know how to properly load fonts into gd, without getting this
error message?

Eric
