Hi all, I have been working on a subtitles engine for flash/flv video player.

I'm trying to port a curses program to Windows. Now one of the problems is that the default ACS_XXXX characters become double-width on Windows console, thus breaking the alignment. I tried looking for other characters to do the job, like '-' or '|' in basic ASCII, but none of them looks good because the line is not continuous. And findi...

Are there existing libraries for generating .ttf via image(s) using PHP (say, a series of images)? There are several references about creating gdf from images, but I've not yet found examples of ttf-font creation via PHP. N.B. There are also several online resources that let you upload an image (write a letter in each box on an image te...
