1. Check the dimensions with imagettftbox()
2. Create an image of that proportions.
3. Make it transparent using imagecolorallocatealpha().
4. Create the text using imagettftext();
6. Copy the created image over the image you want the text in using
imagecopyresampled(), with which you can also change the dimensions/size
of the (part of the) image pasted in.

Maybe imagemagick can do the same, haven't checked on it though.
