Dompdf remote image is not displaying in pdf

On my server pdf generated via dompdf was not displaying images. Because they are remote url images.(local images are working fine) then I come to know that it needs some settings to render remote images.

allow_url_fopen = true => i can not as server control is not in my hand.(and no one will suggest to do this due to security reasons)
read/write access to the DOMPDF_TEMP_DIR (already have this)
DOMPDF_ENABLE_REMOTE = true (already have this)

So to sure the issue of allow_url_fopen, I set false in my localhost which is now giving the same output as server.

So, now the issue is now I want to display remote images in PDF with allow_url_fopen = false

  • I tried almost 5-10 unique ways to do this.
  • I tried to display image in php file (via setting headers) and then displaying the php link in pdf
  • I tried to display image via absolute path to php too but nothing worked.
  • I tried via getting image via curl in a function and then displaying it in a php file ...but no luck.

Is there anyone can suggest me how can I display image in pdf please. The error I am always getting is ...

Image not found
http://localhost/dompdf/image.php

and

Try

$options = new Options();
$options->set('isRemoteEnabled', true);
$dompdf = new Dompdf($options);
