> I get no errors when I give a directory path to the ttf file.
Oops... I'm actually getting this error when I give the path to the ttf
file, but at the very bottom of the page (meaning the graphs are generated
and displayed, with no "die"ing):
PerlScript Error error '80004005'
Could not find/open font
/stats/cpu.asp, line 3
I don't know why it says that-- the font file exists at the path I gave it,
and the permissions appear to be correct. Maybe the error occurs as the GD
"object" is destroyed, which is why it appears after everything on the page
and been displayed and processed?
