Return PDF and Redirect in Laravel

I would like that, in a Laravel Controller, when I finish a method, it download a pdf and redirect to other route.

       $pdf = PDF::loadHTML($html)
          ->setPaper('a4', 'landscape')
          ->setWarnings(false);
          return $pdf->download('deposit.pdf');

       return redirect()->route('devices.index');

If I put return in PDF, the method not redirect. If I remove "return", the PDF does not download. I tried the code below but it not working.

      return redirect()->response()->download($pdf)->route('devices.index');

upload of image with CKEditor plus KCFinder resulting in page not found

I've just learned about the existence of such plug-in. I'm trying to implement an image upload feature using KCFinder. I've also used the standard version of CKEditor, that contains a button for image uploading, without a "Upload" tab.

Instructions tell me to add some lines in CKEditor's config.js, indicating the KCFinder's browser and upload scripts, as follows:

config.filebrowserImageBrowseUrl = '/kcfinder/browse.php?opener=ckeditor&type=images';
config.filebrowserImageUploadUrl = '/kcfinder/upload.php?opener=ckeditor&type=images';

I've tried many different ways to specify the location of these scripts, but no matter what I do, when attempting to upload the image to the server, an error message will show up:

Sorry, the page you are looking for could not be found.

Tons of tutorials, but none help me.

field validation to make dependency in laravel

I have 3 fields - type(hw/sw),hardware type(dropdown) and asset_request.'Type' field is dropdown hardware(1) and software(2).'hardware type' has phone(1),camera(2),others(3)

If I chosen software(0) only asset_request field is mandatory.

If I chosen type=hardware(1) and hardware type=others(3) asset_request field is mandatory. how to validate this in laravel

$this->validate($request,[
                'hardware_type' => 'required_without:asset_request',
                'asset_request' => 'required_without:hardware_type',
                 //want to check asset_request is required if hardware_type is 3
