I am using Laravel framework and image/intervention library for generating images with dynamic data.

I tried switching to imagick and public_path() but it is still showing the same error. My code is as follows:

        return response()->json(['message' => 'Token Invalid','status'=>0], 200);

    $user = MatchmakerUser::where('id', $user->id)->first();
    if($user){
    $img=Image::make($this->url2.'2.png');
    $filename = 'mmProfilePic_'.$user->id.'.jpg';

    elseif($user == null)
        return response()->json(['status' => 0, 'message' => 'No User details found'], 200);
    else
        return response()->json(['status' => 0, 'message' => 'Some Error Occurred'], 200);
}

A year late, but here's to anyone else searching for the answer in 2020 and beyond like me.

I found you have to use public_path() to get the correct path to the file. So change this:

    $font->file('../../../fonts/Poppins-Medium.ttf');

To this:

    $font->file(public_path('../../../fonts/Poppins-Medium.ttf'));

You may need to double-check that the relative path you are giving is correct. (So check what is output by calling public_path() and make sure the file exists.)
