The docs say:

Depending on which version of the GD library PHP is using, when fontfile
does not begin with a leading / then .ttf will be appended to the filename
and the library will attempt to search for that filename along a
library-defined font path.

So, what is the defined path for fontfiles your GD library on the server
is using, and is the font there?
(BTW: I usually don't bother with that, I just include the fontfile
somewhere handy in the sourcetree and include it by full path, saves a lot
of hassle).
