pixel font size in imagettftext instead of point size

Question

I'm trying to use imagettftext, but apparently it uses point size in GD2, but all of my sizes are in pixels, is there any other function that I can use, or any way to convert pixels to points ?

Answer 1

If you're super-lazy, then this might work as an approximation:

$fontsizeinPT = ($fontsizeinPX*3)/4;

Answer 2
