    I wrote a simple function to convert an image resource to PGM (portable graymap) in order to feed it to an OCR program. It works just like the rest of the image output functions, and will convert to grayscale for you:

    <?php
    function imagepgm($image, $filename = null)
    {
    $pgm = "P5 ".imagesx($image)." ".imagesy($image)." 255\n";
    for(    $y = 0; $y < imagesy($image); $y++)
    {
    for(    $x = 0; $x < imagesx($image); $x++)
    {
    $colors = imagecolorsforindex($image, imagecolorat($image, $x, $y));
    $pgm .= chr(0.3 * $colors["red"] + 0.59 * $colors["green"] + 0.11 * $colors["blue"]);
    }
    }
    if(    $filename != null)
    {
    $fp = fopen($filename, "w");
    fwrite($fp, $pgm);
    fclose($fp);
    }
    else
    {
    return     $pgm;
    }
    }
    ?>

    The image sharpen function (by Alex R. Austin) provided below seems to be very resource hungry and I couldn't make it work on two different servers - trying to sharpen a 413 x 413 image I ended up with "Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted" or "Internal Server Error" or the script terminated without notice. Because I had no priviliges to change the default memory limit on these servers I started looking for other sharpen functions. I have come across a php Unsharp Mask function which works like a charm on both of the servers I dealt with. It can be found at http://vikjavev.no/hovudsida/umtestside.php.

    Representation decimal of a color in hexadecimal for use on functions of library GD.

    <?php

    // Representation hexadecimal
    $var = '#FFFFFF';

    function     getRgbFromGd($color_hex) {

    return     array_map('hexdec', explode('|', wordwrap(substr($color_hex, 1), 2, '|', 1)));

    }

    print_r(getRgbFromGd($var));

    // Output: Array ( [0] => 255 [1] => 255 [2] => 255 )

    ?>

    If you happen to need a way to output a Windows BMP file (e.g. when using the PEAR ExcelWriter), feel free to use the following code:

    <?php
    function imagebmp ($im, $fn = false)
    {
    if (!    $im) return false;

    if (    $fn === false) $fn = 'php://output';
    $f = fopen ($fn, "w");
    if (!    $f) return false;

    //Image dimensions
    $biWidth = imagesx ($im);
    $biHeight = imagesy ($im);
    $biBPLine = $biWidth * 3;
    $biStride = ($biBPLine + 3) & ~3;
    $biSizeImage = $biStride * $biHeight;
    $bfOffBits = 54;
    $bfSize = $bfOffBits + $biSizeImage;

    //BITMAPFILEHEADER
    fwrite ($f, 'BM', 2);
    fwrite ($f, pack ('VvvV', $bfSize, 0, 0, $bfOffBits));

    //BITMAPINFO (BITMAPINFOHEADER)
    fwrite ($f, pack ('VVVvvVVVVVV', 40, $biWidth, $biHeight, 1, 24, 0, $biSizeImage, 0, 0, 0, 0));

    $numpad = $biStride - $biBPLine;
    for (    $y = $biHeight - 1; $y >= 0; --$y)
    {
    for (    $x = 0; $x < $biWidth; ++$x)
    {
    $col = imagecolorat ($im, $x, $y);
    fwrite ($f, pack ('V', $col), 3);
    }
    for (    $i = 0; $i < $numpad; ++$i)
    fwrite ($f, pack ('C', 0));
    }
    fclose ($f);
    return     true;
    }
    ?>

    It works the same way as regular imagejpeg/imagepng do and only supports GD2.0 true colour bitmaps (which is what's required by ExcelWriter).

    I know this might look somewhat superfluous to others, but i once came across a situation where i needed a *strong* blur on an image without having ImageMagick installed. Executing the convolution-filter several times on the same image is awfully slow and still doesn't give a good blur.

    The function below accepts a truecolor-image and a blur-factor between 0.0 and 1.0. Beware: It's still quite slow.

    <?php

    function blurImage($srcimg,$blur)
    {
    $blur = $blur*$blur;
    $blur = max(0,min(1,$blur));

    $srcw = imagesx($srcimg);
    $srch = imagesy($srcimg);

    $dstimg = imagecreatetruecolor($srcw,$srch);

    $f1a = $blur;
    $f1b = 1.0 - $blur;


    $cr = 0; $cg = 0; $cb = 0;
    $nr = 0; $ng = 0; $nb = 0;

    $rgb = imagecolorat($srcimg,0,0);
    $or = ($rgb >> 16) & 0xFF;
    $og = ($rgb >> 8) & 0xFF;
    $ob = ($rgb) & 0xFF;

    //-------------------------------------------------
    // first line is a special case
    //-------------------------------------------------
    $x = $srcw;
    $y = $srch-1;
    while (    $x--)
    {
    //horizontal blurren
    $rgb = imagecolorat($srcimg,$x,$y);
    $cr = ($rgb >> 16) & 0xFF;
    $cg = ($rgb >> 8) & 0xFF;
    $cb = ($rgb) & 0xFF;

    $nr = ($cr * $f1a) + ($or * $f1b);
    $ng = ($cg * $f1a) + ($og * $f1b);
    $nb = ($cb * $f1a) + ($ob * $f1b);

    $or = $nr;
    $og = $ng;
    $ob = $nb;

    imagesetpixel($dstimg,$x,$y,($nr << 16) | ($ng << 8) | ($nb));
    }
    //-------------------------------------------------

    //-------------------------------------------------
    // now process the entire picture
    //-------------------------------------------------
    $y = $srch-1;
    while (    $y--)
    {

    $rgb = imagecolorat($srcimg,0,$y);
    $or = ($rgb >> 16) & 0xFF;
    $og = ($rgb >> 8) & 0xFF;
    $ob = ($rgb) & 0xFF;

    $x = $srcw;
    while (    $x--)
    {
    //horizontal
    $rgb = imagecolorat($srcimg,$x,$y);
    $cr = ($rgb >> 16) & 0xFF;
    $cg = ($rgb >> 8) & 0xFF;
    $cb = ($rgb) & 0xFF;

    $nr = ($cr * $f1a) + ($or * $f1b);
    $ng = ($cg * $f1a) + ($og * $f1b);
    $nb = ($cb * $f1a) + ($ob * $f1b);

    $or = $nr;
    $og = $ng;
    $ob = $nb;


    //vertical
    $rgb = imagecolorat($dstimg,$x,$y+1);
    $vr = ($rgb >> 16) & 0xFF;
    $vg = ($rgb >> 8) & 0xFF;
    $vb = ($rgb) & 0xFF;

    $nr = ($nr * $f1a) + ($vr * $f1b);
    $ng = ($ng * $f1a) + ($vg * $f1b);
    $nb = ($nb * $f1a) + ($vb * $f1b);

    $vr = $nr;
    $vg = $ng;
    $vb = $nb;

    imagesetpixel($dstimg,$x,$y,($nr << 16) | ($ng << 8) | ($nb));
    }

    }
    //-------------------------------------------------
    return $dstimg;

    }


    $srcimg = imagecreatefromjpeg("test.jpg");
    $dstimg = blurImage($srcimg,0.2);

    header('Content-type: image/jpeg');
    echo(     imagejpeg($dstimg) );
    exit();

    I wrote an online overview of the image functions that people might find useful. In addition to a general overview of the various function categories and code samples, I have included many interactive examples of the functions, allowing viewers to experiment with the parameters, and seeing the results in real time.
