image manipulation with pear

Post by nolanpro »

Hi

I've been bugging the server guys trying to get them to install the GD library for a year and a half but they just ignore me (University techs, go figure).

However, I think I can run PEAR scripts so I was wondering if theres any way to resize and rotate jpeg files using just a PEAR package (no GD, ImageMagik, etc).

Thanks!

You're unlikely to find any pure PHP solutions for graphics manipulation.. it's just, on the whole, outside the scope of what PHP, by itself, is for.

I'd say just go install it yourself, or ask an administrator?

He likely does not have access to the server configurations (which is why he has been asking them for ~1.5 years) :wink:
