imagepsencodefont - Change the character encoding vector of a font

SYNOPSIS
bool imagepsencodefont (resource $font_index, string $encodingfile)
DESCRIPTION
Loads a character encoding vector from a file and changes the fonts encoding vector to it. As a PostScript fonts default vector lacks most of the character positions above 127, you'll definitely want to change this if you use a language other than English. If you find yourself using this function all the time, a much better way to define the encoding is to set ps.default_encoding in the con- figuration file to point to the right encoding file and all fonts you load will automatically have the right encoding.
PARAMETERS
o $font_index - A font resource, returned by imagepsloadfont(3). o $encodingfile - The exact format of this file is described in T1libs documentation. T1lib comes with two ready-to-use files, IsoLatin1.enc and IsoLatin2.enc.
RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
EXAMPLES
Example #1 imagepsencodefont(3) example <?php // Load a .pfb font file $font = imagepsloadfont('./px3l.pfb'); // Tell T1lib to use ISO Latin 1 encoding imagepsencode($font, './IsoLatin1.enc'); // Do any operations with the font here // Free the font from memory imagepsfreefont($font); ?>
