How to enable GD Library support for PHP in Windows server

To enable GD Library support for PHP on Windows server, follow the below mentioned steps:
  1. First of all, make sure that php_gd2.dll file is present into the directory identified as extension directory in PHP folder.
  2. If the above file is not present then you need to download it from http://php.net/ and copy in the extension directory of PHP folder.
  3. If the file is already present then you need to enable php_gd2.dll extension from php.ini configuration file.
  4. You can verify extension-dir through PHPINFO page. Following is the code for PHPINFO Page:
    phpinfo();
    ?>
After performing all these steps, restart the IIS web server.
