Hi,

I'm using perl GD module. Everything is working fine except for the fonts.

I tried to create a string at a particular location by saying:

$image = new GD::Image(401,401);
$image->string(gdMediumBoldFont, 60,40, "<---- UP", $black);

and I get the following error:

Software error:

font is not of type GD::Font

The funny thing is that the exact statement works if i put it in
another program, running off the same directory on the same local host.
I cant figure out whats wrong.

I also tried loading a font by:

my $font = GD::Font->load("/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/cour.pfa");

, but then I get this:



Software error:

Success at otherscoresdump.10-27-06.pl line 1318.


Any ideas/suggestions would be really appreciated. 

thanks
dhivya
