jpgraph error 2591 : problem with True type fonts.

[niocco]

Hello,

A fresh install of a database monotoring tool ( asemon ) using jpgraph display error messages on a couple of graph saying that "internal fonts does not support drawing at arbitrary angle". and advising to use TTF fonts instead.

So i assume that jpgraph started to search somewhere a TTF file, but could not find it, so he used a system font instead.

This is surely an installation issue

To solve it, i would like to know where he looks for fonts, and what files are requiered.

An annoying thing is that i found a src/fonts directory containing these files :

DejaVuSans.ttf

DejaVuSans-Oblique.ttf

DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf

DejaVuSans-BoldOblique.ttf

FF_FONT2.gdf

FF_FONT2-Bold.gdf

FF_FONT1.gdf

FF_FONT1-Bold.gdf

FF_FONT0.gdf

FF_FONT0-Bold.gdf

I assume that this is what jpgraph need no ? then why does he complain about that ?

Does someone know a way to solve this ?

Hi,

You can configure your font path in src/jpg-config-inc.inc.php or overwrite it in your code.

Hello Eric,

i did try several things in this way but never found something fine.

Alternatively, i found a post somewhere saying that php must be compiled with gd freetype.

I'm asking the system admin to do that and as soon as i get a result i'll post a feedback here

Regards
