PHP 7.2 suppress warning from count
<?php

* This is an alternative way of handling warnings from calling count() on
* non-countables. It's just an error handler that drops the warning, and calls
* the previous error handler for everything else (if there is one).
*/

// Do nothing with an E_WARNING from count.

Just output a table with fonts and their appearance in PHP Imagick. Inspired by Stefano: http://php.net/manual/en/imagick.queryfonts.php#121010
<?php
foreach (Imagick::queryFonts() as $fontName) {
$image = new Imagick;
$draw = new ImagickDraw;
$draw->setGravity(Imagick::GRAVITY_CENTER);
$draw->setFont($fontName);
$draw->setFontSize(12);
$draw->setFillColor('black');
$image->newImage(300, 20, 'lightblue');

Got 404? No more! Place this file in your webroot, and your application will no longer waste CPU cycles to handle this request, log the 404 etc. The webserver will just respond with an HTTP 200 and serve the file.
It's time for user agents to stop requesting this file.
