     function imagettfstroketext(&$image, $size, $angle, $x, $y, &$textcolor, &$strokecolor, $fontfile, $text, $px) {
    for($c1 = ($x-abs($px)); $c1 <= ($x+abs($px)); $c1++)
        for($c2 = ($y-abs($px)); $c2 <= ($y+abs($px)); $c2++)
            $bg = imagettftext($image, $size, $angle, $c1, $c2, $strokecolor, $fontfile, $text);
        return imagettftext($image, $size, $angle, $x, $y, $textcolor, $fontfile, $text);
    }
    
    $font_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
    $stroke_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);
    imagettfstroketext($im, 60, 10, 300, 130, $font_color, $stroke_color, "wqy-  microhei.ttc", "简体繁體", 2);
