2 Basic Questions. Please help.

First:

I was wondering how i could convert the following captchas into strings. I found that gettext function but I can't figure out the font name and size and stuff... I just can't get it to work.

EDIT: The above looked different on the page... here's an example: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v76/gilbert/captcha.jpg


Second:

I found a method to find out what they say based on their size, but was wondering how I could convert the size ( I make the bot copy it ) to a string from the clipboard.

Thanks!
