[Typo3] menu error note

[christian reiter]

Hi,
'ImageTTFBBox' is a PHP function which relies on the availability of the GD
and Freetype libraries. These are requirements for dynamically calculating
text in graphics. Therefore, if GD and/or Freetype are not present, a call
to such a function delivers an error.

"Fatal error - call to undefined function" is telling you that this function
simply "isn´t there". Since this isn´t a function that is part of the Typo3
code, but instead part of the PHP environment, there is not a problem in any
of the Typo3 files. Instead, something is wrong with the PHP setup.

First step, you should check in the Typo3 install tool whether GD/Freetype
are working. Check phpinfo for information on available modules and
libraries on your install.

greetings,

Christian
