text embellisher module broken?

I am installing the TruetypeText module (Version: 2.0.0-RC2). Upon initial installation, I go to the module in Admin and see the series of tabs, and content within each. It says that the first thing I need to do is upload a TTF file. I do so, and when I return to admin to look at the module, only the tabs show up, but no content beneath them that I can use to manipulate settings. I have used version 1.1 successfully, but when installing this 2.0 version for a new site, I cannot seem to get it working.
Is there a known bug? Any clue why I am not able to use it after I put a TTF file in the relevant folder?

I am having the same problem. In addition, when I use any of the 'ajax' controls on the main page content list ( eg expand button), I get an XML error popup. Uninstalling TruetypeText resolves the error.

Hello,
Anybody solved this problem yet

i'm using TruetypeText 2.0.0-RC2 and having the same sort of problems.
Maybe other modules are this cause?

Fatal error
Cannot re-assign $this in .. /modules/TruetypeText/class.ttt.php on line 125
is the error message after you upload the first font amd set the directory permissions on the module to 777.
If I comment out the line, new errors spring up "imagettftext() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given" which should be the $image returned. So I'm guessing on my install something is very broken.

This is because the text embelisher does not work with PHP5

The AJAX issue is because the language file is in DOS format. I suspect there is a carriage return (but no line feed) at the end of /modules/TruetypeText/lang/en_US.php
Running the file through dos2unix solves the problem:

Hope it helps

Is there something in the plans to update this module to work with PHP5?
