I am using dompdf in laravel to create invoice. and it works fine for me until i use image in that.

Admin Controller

 public function generateInvoice(Request $request)
{
    $user = Auth::user();
    $pdf        = PDF::loadView('pdf.invoice', $user);
    return $pdf->download('invoice.pdf');
}

And in Invoice View Page that contains the invoice template...

</div>

but When I run the code...it will show error message Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded

Please tell me what is the issue behind this..

Have you done `php artisan vendor:publish`, then gone to your `config/` directory and then edited `dompdf.php` and then set `show_warnings = true`? Should give you a bit better error reporting. Also, can you try passing the image to the pdf view as a base 64 encoded image, and then use the content of that in the PDF? Set your source `$src = public_path().'/img/minilogo.jpg';`, then create the `$image `variable to be passed to the view: `$image = 'data: '.mime_content_type($src).';base64,'.base64_encode(file_get_contents($src));` now set the `` — Ohgodwhy, Aug 19 '16 at 17:44
If you use a different image (say from a public server) do you still have the issue? — BrianS, Sep 07 '16 at 02:22

I had the same issue when using a very large image. I solved the issue by changing the maximum execution time by adding this line before starting the pdf creation: ini_set('max_execution_time', 120);. You can also change this in your php.ini file if you like, just make sure you know what you're doing, as this setting applies to all scripts executed on your web server. You'll also have to restart your web server after making changes in the php.ini file.

Some other options so solve this are discussed here.

you can use this code :

<img src="{{ public_path("images/a.png") }}">

or can :

<div style="background: url({{ public_path("images/a.png"}})">text</div>
