PHP in a Nutshell: Manipulating Images

PublisherOReilly Media
Format324.5KB PDFDate added06 Oct 2005

Lots of people stereotype PHP as only being suitable for outputting text, but that's not true - one can use PHP to create complex and dynamic pictures using the GD image extension. This paper covers many of the GD functions that will allow the user to make their own images for the site, either from scratch or by using existing images. For image manipulation purposes, PHP ships with its own copy of the popular GD library. One used to have to get the own copy of GD and hope it was compatible with one's PHP version. This is no longer the case. The copy of GD that ships with PHP will work with that version of PHP.
