<h1>Font Metrics Test</h1>
<p>This is <a href="metrics.info.php">PHP version <?=phpversion()?></a>.</p>
<p>The font metrics output by <a href="http://php.net/imagettfbbox">imagettfbbox</a> may be incorrect on some PHP installations.</p>
<p>The following sample image demonstrates the problem:</p>
<p><img src="metrics.php"/></p>
<p>The image above should display a red outline, precisely lined up with the bounds of the rendered glyphs - if the red line does not accurately line up with the boundaries of the type, the bug is present in your PHP installation.</p>
