Yeah, I have been wondering about that, but we have another server 
running, where everything works as it should and it looks like this.

Well, the error is, that the image generated on my server does not look 
like the reference in most cases, like the combine using a GIF mask, I 
get an all green square. pdf's and ai's are not shown. The GD library 
funcions:

- Render text with TrueType font using 'niceText' option
- Render 'niceText' with a shadow under

doesn't look like the reference.

I have my doubts about that, since nearly all the tests fail.
