Creating stroked text in PHP

Hi, can anyone offer any advice on how to create stroke on text in PHP?
I have had a look around google and the docs but cannot find anything obvious.

Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks

 

What is stroked text?

 

Text with stroke, i.e. imagine you have white text, with a thin [or X pixel] coloured line around it.

 

Can you post an example?

 

Yeah sure...

If you look at the image here:

It has white text with a black outline [i.e. stroke].
Thanks for the replies

 

Hm, perhaps you can write the text to the image twice. Once in black, and another time with a smaller font in white.

Take a look at the examples of the imagestring() function. This shows you how to write text to an image.

 

Sorry, I misunderstood. If you mean the text in the image, I guess they made that with an image editor.
I know nothing about image manipulation with PHP, sorry

 

^ Er, you can't change the text on an image with CSS.

 

I know, I misunderstood the question. Already edited my answer

 

Yeah I already have text written on my image using ImageString.

Unfortunately writing it in a bigger font first doesn't work properly, as it becomes disproportionate the further you are away from the align point of the text [i.e. left, center, right].

That does not photo shop it's images, it is all done via PHP, so I know it is possible.

Thanks for responses!
