How would you make this...

[Topps]

I know I ask for a alot of help on things but I get them sorted fairly quickly, but this is one that has my head spinning, but anyway, how would you get like a piece of text to output as Volter (Goldfish) without it being saved onto the viewers computer, I saw it once on a site, I think anyway and it was like this...

text.php?word=hello

...and it would output as Volter (Goldfish) on the page, I am guessing it's like a Habbo Imager but different slightly, so, anyone know how I could do this?

Thanks for any help given! :)

I think you just upload the font to the site and then use html text? o.o

I've tried that, it didn't work because wouldn't it have to be included on the page your using the font on?

What wouldnt work, you have to use GD www.php.net/gd

If you used html it would only work if everyone who visited had that font installed.

mabye they did it so each letter is an image? like there might be a code somewhere that turns every letter into a image, and the name of the image could be the letter

so if i had like hello
it would have to get h.gif from yoursite.com/images/letters or something and then e.gif and then l.gif l.gif and then o.gif or something

not sure

It's PHP GD using the imagettftext function.
