in reply to Windows AS Perl 629 no good for Images

Your problem is you do not understand the arguments to stringTTF - you are placing your test in a position outside your image. Try:

$im->stringTTF($black,"c:/windows/system/hudson2.ttf", 12, 0, 0, 20,"Font Reactor") or die $!;

and consider that the point (0,0) is at the top left of the image.
