      The latest Open Badges spec requires use of iTXt instead of tEXt for baking of badges. Moodle uses tEXt.

      See:
      https://github.com/moodle/moodle/blob/da0ef2e4cf9c02cfa0444814b4e6e9b2cb000cd6/lib/badgeslib.php#L1015

      https://github.com/moodle/moodle/commit/853e506a1b6ba9ed3af1faec88cfb55c4c7a3f61#diff-714e633d117fead32136ce884ae58b47L123

      https://github.com/openbadges/openbadges-specification/blob/master/Badge-Baking/latest.md#baking

      Simply replacing "tEXt" with "iTXt" in the function call type parameter does not seem to be sufficient.

      In lieu of code, any direction or advice on fixing this appreciated. I'm actually using this library outside of Moodle to generate badges and will happily contribute a fix back.
