How can PHP be used to display text and images side by side in a single image?

To display text and images side by side in a single image using PHP, you can use the GD library to create a new image, add text and images to it, and then output the final image. You can position the text and images side by side by specifying their coordinates within the image. 

<?php
// Create a new image with a width of 400 and height of 200
$image = imagecreatetruecolor(400, 200);

// Set the background color to white
$white = imagecolorallocate($image, 255, 255, 255);
imagefill($image, 0, 0, $white);

// Load an image
$logo = imagecreatefrompng('logo.png');

// Add the image to the main image at position (0, 0)
imagecopy($image, $logo, 0, 0, 0, 0, imagesx($logo), imagesy($logo));

// Add text to the main image at position (200, 100)
$textColor = imagecolorallocate($image, 0, 0, 0);
$text = "Hello World!";
imagettftext($image, 20, 0, 200, 100, $textColor, 'arial.ttf', $text);

// Output the final image
header('Content-type: image/png');
imagepng($image);

// Free up memory
imagedestroy($image);
?>
