mostly this error arise when passed file in imageloadfont , is not proper .gdf file . you need to check again is it correct .gdf file or not ? or try to find good .gdf file and try to use it .

imageloadfont always work with proper font file.

i got same error when i try to .ttf load image font by imageloadfont .

and first i tried to solve problem by extending the memory space of php. i changed memory_limit = 128M to memory_limit = 234324 in the php.ini

but it not resolved that way

so i used function imagettftext


$white = imagecolorallocate($image, 255, 255, 255);
$font = 'font.ttf';
imagettftext($im, 20, 0, 11, 21, $white, $font, $text);

so hope it help
