I'd either run identify on the image beforehand, or test PHP's libgd module to see if it was good enough for this.
I will try GD today and see what the results are like (the results from ImageMagick are pretty amazing, to be honest).
I'm not sure what you mean about using identify though - I can see how I'd use it to work out the size of the image but I can't see how I'd use that information to calculate the pointsize to use with my text?
