Do you have True Type fonts?

The True Type Fonts that are installed are available under the /usr/share/fonts/ directory.

If you want to use other TTFs you will need to upload them yourself to a separate directory and specify the full path to your own fonts in any scripts or programs that are using them.

An example of how to use TTF fonts in an image:

<?php
     header ("Content-type: image/png");
     $im = imagecreate (400, 30);
     $black = imagecolorallocate ($im, 0, 0, 0);
     $white = imagecolorallocate ($im, 255, 255, 255);
     imagettftext ($im, 20, 0, 10, 20, -$white, 
              "/usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType/arib____.ttf", "Ich
will muss");
     imagepng ($im);
     imagedestroy ($im);
     exit;
?>

Personally, I had to modify the sample above to have it working.

->line 7 should read:
imagepng ($im,"im.png");

->and I removed the line 9 (exit;) in order to not have a blank page.

->Then to display your image add this wherever you want your image
displayed:
<img src="im.png" border=0>
