I am trying to generate image with some text and I have wrote following code:

<?php
    // Set the content-type
    header('Content-Type: image/png');

    // Create the image
    $im = imagecreatetruecolor(400, 30);

    // Create some colors
    $white = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
    $grey = imagecolorallocate($im, 128, 128, 128);
    $black = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);
    imagefilledrectangle($im, 0, 0, 399, 29, $white);

    // The text to draw
    $text = '준수';
    // Replace path by your own font path
    $font = 'fonts/Walkway Black RevOblique.ttf';

    // Add the text
    imagettftext($im, 20, 0, 10, 20, $black, $font, $text);

    // Using imagepng() results in clearer text compared with imagejpeg()
    imagepng($im);
    imagedestroy($im);
?>

Now when I add text with English characters it works but when I used Korean characters is not working and getting this image.

enter image description here

Any idea how to display Korean text?

Thanks

Looks like Walkway Black RevOblique.ttf is not Korean font. Try to download and use Korean one.
