Imagick::queryFontMetrics — Returns an array representing the font metrics
Diese Funktion ist bis jetzt nicht dokumentiert. Es steht nur die Liste der Argumente zur Verfügung.
Returns a multi-dimensional array representing the font metrics.
ImagickDraw object containing font properties
The text
Multiline parameter. If left empty it is autodetected
Returns a multi-dimensional array representing the font metrics. Wirf eine ImagickException bei einem Fehler.
Wirft ImagickException bei Fehlern.
Beispiel #1 Using Imagick::queryFontMetrics():
Query the metrics for the text and dump the results on the screen.
<?php
/* Create a new Imagick object */
$im = new Imagick();
/* Create an ImagickDraw object */
$draw = new ImagickDraw();
/* Set the font */
$draw->setFont('/path/to/font.ttf');
/* Dump the font metrics, autodetect multiline */
var_dump($im->queryFontMetrics($draw, "Hello World!"));
?>
The following fields constitute my current PHP 5.2.1/Imagick 6.5.1 queryFontMetrics() return array (once setFontSize() and setFont() have been set):
characterWidth: maximum character ("em") width
characterHeight: maximum character height
ascender: the height of character ascensions (i.e. the straight bit on a 'b')
descender: the height of character descensions (i.e. the straight bit on a 'p')
textWidth: width of drawn text in pixels
textHeight: height of drawn text in pixels
maxHorizontalAdvance: maximum pixels from start of one character to start of the next
boundingBox: array of x1, y1, x2, y2 bounding borders
originX, originY: ?
originX seems to shadow the textWidth field, and originY has been zero thus far in my exploration.
If you're looking to center text or locate it at an edge, though, use ImagickDraw::setGravity(int $gravity), where $gravity is one of the following constants:
Imagick::GRAVITY_NORTHWEST
Imagick::GRAVITY_NORTH
Imagick::GRAVITY_NORTHEAST
Imagick::GRAVITY_WEST
Imagick::GRAVITY_CENTER
Imagick::GRAVITY_EAST
Imagick::GRAVITY_SOUTHWEST
Imagick::GRAVITY_SOUTH
Imagick::GRAVITY_SOUTHEAST
Using setGravity() is far less finicky for the simpler tasks.
Up to and including imagick 3.0.1, queryfontmetrics would output size data based on an image resolution of 72x72. (see bug: http://pecl.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=19907)
Should you have set a resolution other than this and be using 3.0.1 or below, you need to scale measurements up by a factor of YOUR_RESOLUTION / 72
e.g. assuming you've set a resolution of 300
<?php
$im = new Imagick();
$im->setResolution(300,300);
$draw = new ImagickDraw();
$draw->setFont('/path/to/arial.ttf');
$draw->setFontSize(72 * (300 / 72));
$data = $im->queryfontmetrics($draw, 'hello world');
var_dump($data);
?>
In 3.0.2 and above, the solution is to set the resolution on the draw object to that of the image resolution
<?php
$im = new Imagick();
$im->setResolution(300,300);
$draw = new ImagickDraw();
$draw->setResolution(300,300);
$draw->setFont('/path/to/arial.ttf');
$draw->setFontSize(72);
$draw->setFillColor('#ff0000');
$data = $im->queryFontMetrics($draw, $string);
var_dump($data);
?>
You can also use $imagickDraw()->setTextAlignmnent(Imagick::ALIGN_CENTER) and $imagickDraw->annotation(..) instead.
You can use this to center a text within a box
<?php
$data = "Hello world";
$text = new ImagickDraw();
$text->setFontSize(12);
$text->setFont("Arial");
$boxWidth = 210;
$im = new Imagick();
$fm = $im->queryFontMetrics($text, $data, false);
$textXLoc = ($boxWidth / 2) - ($fm["textWidth"] / 2);
?>
$textXLoc is now the starting location you need to use to feed to your annotateImage() function.
