Are there alternative methods to using PHP's graphic functions for positioning text or images on an image?

When working with PHP's graphic functions to position text or images on an image, an alternative method is to use a library like GD or ImageMagick. These libraries offer more advanced features and flexibility for manipulating images, including positioning text or images with greater control.

// Example using GD library to position text on an image
$im = imagecreatefromjpeg('image.jpg');
$textColor = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
imagettftext($im, 20, 0, 10, 50, $textColor, 'arial.ttf', 'Hello World');
header('Content-Type: image/jpeg');
imagejpeg($im);
imagedestroy($im);
