Put text to the image

[pahnin]

I want to add text to the image, but I coudnt find any method to do that. Is there any method or its a feature not available in chunky yet?

There currently is no font rendering tool in ChunkyPNG.

My gut feel is that this is way too complex to implement in pure Ruby, so it is unlikely to ever get added to ChunkyPNG. What you could do is pre-render the characters you need as separate png images and copy paste these onto a larger canvas.

ok, thnx so what you say is there is no easy way to open ttf files in ruby, or else you could have open it and selected the exact letter from ttf file and add it to canvas right?

[wvanbergen]

You can probably do something along those lines with ImageMagick, but that defeats the point of having a pure ruby library.

ya I know, i mean, I'm looking for a pure ruby implementation too, sad that I cudnt find one
