I am looking to create images with text in them and am wondering where the font files are kept on the server, if there are any.

I don't think that the server has font files.

If you want to create an image with a font in them, that's fine.  As long as your computer has the font, that's all you need.  Once you make it onto an image, anyone can view it just fine.

sorry I meant using php to create images with text

Upload the font to your account, preferably into the same folder as the php/image. There are no pre-hosted fonts that I know of that you can access from the freepgs server. I myself have used fonts in dynamic PHP images... I don't have the code for using a font in the image at the moment but yeah, just upload it by yourself, this way also offers more control since you can use any font you wish.

No fonts on the server.  If you don't want to upload you own, php does have a crappy font of its own.
meh :P
