increasing font size in imagestring

Hi how do I increase the font size in a image string function? I need the text to look at least like a heading in my image.

 

Can you show us some code, wich function is used to create a text?

 

it's the imagestring() function. How do I increase my font using this function?

 

<?php
// create a 100*30 image... Increase this U will get big and big
$im = imagecreate(100, 30);

// white background and blue text
$bg = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
$textcolor = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 255);

// write the string at the top left
imagestring($im, 5, 0, 0, "Hello world!", $textcolor);

// output the image
header("Content-type: image/png");
imagepng($im);
?>

@ Suraj,
That won't increase the font-size. It will only increase the image size.

@ Cinta
the second parameter in the imagestring() function indicates the font-size.(See the 5 in bold red below)

imagestring($im, [B][COLOR="Red"]5[/COLOR][/B], 0, 0, "Hello world!", $textcolor);

Code (markup):

I think it the max font size you can get is 7(or may be 8). Even if you enter 15 as font-size, you will get output of max size 7.

 

use <font style="font-size:22 em">some text</font> in loop

And you can increase font size to 200 like this
