imageDrawText alignment

Question

I'm really struggling with the functionality of
imageDrawText. I'd like to be able to do two things:

1. Is there any way to make the text align right or center?

2. I'd like to create a text string, get it's exact length
and then paste it onto an image.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'd like to create a text string, get it's exactlength and then paste it onto an image.That is not really something you can do with imageDrawText.You can use this method to get the size of the graphical text. Then use those dimensions to center or rightalign the text. http://www.coldfusionjedi.com/index.cfm/2008/1/16/ColdFusion-8-Image-functions-and-text-sizeBear in mind the measurements are not always pixel perfect.When using italics or certain fonts, the size may be off by a fewpixels occasionally . But they should be good enough for mostpurposes.
