[AsMoz3374]

I'm leaving this answer for help in case anyone has failed to add text on the image. If you guys have a better answer please share it to help people.

try {
    // Create a new SimpleImage object
    $image = new \claviska\SimpleImage();
  
    $image
      ->fromFile('image.jpg')                     // load image.jpg
      ->autoOrient()                              // adjust orientation based on exif data   
      ->text('Text Here', array(
        'fontFile' => dirname(realpath(__FILE__)).'/YourFont.ttf',
        'size' => 32, // Font Size
        'anchor' => 'bottom right') // Text Position
        )  
      ->toFile('new-image.png', 'image/png') // convert to PNG and save a copy to new-image.png
      ;
  } catch(Exception $err) {
    // Handle errors
    echo $err->getMessage();
  }

Yep, you'll need to pass a TTF or OTF font through to text() as you've discovered. This is a GD thing, since it doesn't come with fonts built in.

Closing since you've discovered the solution.
