Thanks for all the replies.

WRT all the suggested strings for cr/lf, none of them seem to play in this
application. For example, using $br = "\r\n" or $br = chr(10).chr(13),
etc., appended as:

$msg = 'string1:' . $string1.$br. ' string2: ' . $string2;

yields only strange characters after string1, then, on the same line
prints string2.

Lew Pitcher's first suggestion works -- make two calls to
imagestring(), with two individual strings..

Thanks all.
