Template::Plugin::GD::Text - Text utilities for use with GD

Author

       Thomas Boutell wrote the GD graphics library.

       Lincoln D. Stein wrote the Perl GD modules that interface to it and Martien Verbruggen wrote the GD::Text
       module.

       Craig Barratt <craig@arraycomm.com> wrote the original GD plugins for the Template Toolkit (2001).

       Andy Wardley <abw@cpan.org> extracted them from the TT core into a separate distribution for TT version
       2.15.

Description

       The GD.Text plugin provides an interface to the GD::Text module.  It allows attributes of strings such as
       width and height in pixels to be computed.

       See GD::Text for more details. See Template::Plugin::GD::Text::Align and Template::Plugin::GD::Text::Wrap
       for plugins that allow you to render aligned or wrapped text in GD images.

Examples

           [%
               USE gd_c = GD.Constants;
               USE t = GD.Text;
               x = t.set_text('Some text');
               r = t.get('width', 'height', 'char_up', 'char_down');
               r.join(":"); "\n";     # returns 54:13:13:0.
           -%]

           [%
               USE gd_c = GD.Constants;
               USE t = GD.Text(text => 'FooBar Banana', font => gd_c.gdGiantFont);
               t.get('width'); "\n";  # returns 117.
           -%]
