That looks remarkably like an example from the docs; as a first debugging
process try removing the header() and see what error messages you may get.
My guess is that your fontfile string is wrong - I would expect, unless
you have renamed the file, that it would be ./arial.ttf. You might also
find that you need a full path to the font file.
