Captcha Image missing

I'm in the contactus.php file. The captcha image is missing and I cannot get it to work. I've checked the img src re: instructions from another post. Here is the code associated with the image:

<div class="text"><img src="WA_ValidationToolkit/WAVT_CaptchaSecurityImages.php?noisecolor=<?php echo $WAGLOBAL_Captcha_Noise; ?>&bgcolor=<?php echo $WAGLOBAL_Captcha_BG; ?>&textcolor=<?php echo $WAGLOBAL_Captcha_Text; ?>&transparent=<?php echo $WAGLOBAL_Captcha_BG_transparent; ?>&characters=<?php echo $WAGLOBAL_Captcha_Characters; ?>&width=<?php echo $WAGLOBAL_Captcha_Width; ?>&height=<?php echo $WAGLOBAL_Captcha_Height; ?>&font=<?php echo $WAGLOBAL_Captcha_Font; ?>" alt="security code" /></div>

I've also tried changing the font in the WA_Globals.php file. What can I try next to get this to work? Thanks.

when i view source of the page, the image source code is:
<img src="WA_ValidationToolkit/WAVT_CaptchaSecurityImages.php?noisecolor=F0F0F0&bgcolor=F0F0F0&textcolor=000000&transparent=0&characters=5&width=255&height=40&font=/ContactForm102/ContactForm_GMC/WA_ValidationToolkit/Fonts/MACTYPE.TTF" alt="security code" />


trying to browse directly to the captcha image at:
MACTYPE.TTF

gives the following error:

Warning: imagettfbbox() [function.imagettfbbox]: Could not find/open font in /home/denwest/public_html/store/WA_ValidationToolkit/WAVT_CaptchaSecurityImages.php on line 125


seams there is a problem with the font path:
font=/ContactForm102/ContactForm_GMC/WA_ValidationToolkit/Fonts/MACTYPE.TTF


If I change that to:
font=Fonts/MACTYPE.TTF

and browse to:
MACTYPE.TTF



the captcha image displays correctly.

Similar problem

I am having a similar problem.
I changed "font=Fonts/MOM_T___.TTF" but still get the Fatal error: listed below.
In the form I get a broken image link symbol in the captcha (contactus.php).


MOM_T___.TTF

Fatal error: Call to undefined function imagettfbbox() in /home/gssdesi/public_html/ContactForm_GMC/WA_ValidationToolkit/WAVT_CaptchaSecurityImages.php on line 125

Captcha image broken link

line 125 from "WAVT_CaptchaSecurityImages.php"

$textbox = imagettfbbox($font_size, 0, $font, $captcha_string);

FreeType needs to be enabled as well.

See the php.net manual page for the imagettfbbox function

  Notes

Note: This function requires both the GD library and the ยป FreeType library.  




In most cases, FreeType is automatically enabled with the GD library
