Hi,
sorry for replying so late.
after a lot of testing and debugging i finally found the problem....
so just to finalize this thread:

what i meant was, that the two lines where starting on the same xy 
coordinates. this resulted in gifs that were not readable anymore.

your (working) example showed that it was not a typo3 or grafics-library 
problem, but a fault in my configuration.
so after testing and crying over and over finally i found out that this 
behaviour occured only with my fancy font files :( arrggg
disabling the fontFile Tag renders beautiful grafics.
I will test it with different font files.
Any idea what could cause this strange behaviour?
Or does anybody know where to look (for debugging) in the source-code 
for the linebreaking feature?

finally one more question:
when typo3 renders the linebreaks automatically, there still must be a 
point to set the rendering offset BETWEEN these two lines?

anyways thanks for your input, joey.

bye
