To make the thread complete, here a minimal test program: (adjust the path to your
ttf font)

<?php
Header ("Content-type: image/gif");
$im = imagecreate (400, 30);
$black = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 0, 0, 0);
$white = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 255, 255, 255);
ImageTTFText ($im, 20, 0, 10, 20, $white,
"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSerif.ttf",
              "&laquo;Test&raquo; &copy; /Str. Omega: &#937;");
ImageGif ($im);
ImageDestroy ($im);


Have fun testing.
