How can the location of font files be properly specified in PHP scripts to avoid errors like "Could not find/open font"?

To properly specify the location of font files in PHP scripts, you can use the absolute path to the font file instead of a relative path. This ensures that the script can locate the font file regardless of the current working directory. By specifying the full path to the font file, you can avoid errors like "Could not find/open font" and ensure that the font is loaded correctly in your PHP script. 

// Specify the absolute path to the font file
$fontFile = '/path/to/font/font.ttf';

// Use the absolute path when loading the font
$font = imageloadfont($fontFile);

// Use the font in your PHP script
imagettftext($image, $size, $angle, $x, $y, $color, $font, $text);
