TTF Files required for JpGraph

anjanesh · 02-10-2007, 08:23 AM

Hi

Im using JpGraph, and it works fine on my PC.
But on my linux server, I get

Code:

Font File
/usr/X11R6/lib/font/truetype/verdana.ttf is not readable or does not exist

Same if I replace it with arial.

PHP Code:



$graph->yaxis->SetFont(FF_VERDANA, FS_NORMAL, 8); 
$lineplot->value->SetFont(FF_ARIAL, FS_NORMAL, 9);

Now, the server is a shared host and I dont think I would be able to upload the 2 missing ttf files to the specified folder.

Is there a workaround for this ?

Thanx

You can create the following directory in your $HOME

Code:

mkdir .fonts

put your .ttf files into it and update the font information cache by

Code:

fc-cache .fonts

This can be done without root privileges, since it scans only a directory placed in a user's home.
