My mother wants to make something like the image.

The table with images

Currently, she has to use a proprietary word processor, with no good way to control the size and margins. Hopefully there is a better way to achieve the same with less ceremony.

The features we need:

  • Create tables with images/texts on each cell (images should be embedded inside each cell)
  • Merge some cells together to make a good-looking table
  • Multi-line texts in some cells, with formattings like boldface
  • CJK language support

Then, good flexibility to control size of cells would be nice - the more intuitive, the better. Both locally installed program or web-based app is fine.

Are there software for this purpose? Thanks a lot in advance!

Hmm, how do you embed images in excel?

    Insert->picture

    Or just drag from explorer into the spreadsheet.

    I just searched, did not know you can embed an image inside a cell. That said, my mom wants to input multiline texts in some cells..

    Alt+Enter on PC and Opt+Enter on Mac puts a line break or carriage return in a cell rather than Enter which just skips to the next cell.

    Enter moves selection down a cell.
    Shift+enter moves it up.
    Tab+enter moves it left.
    Shift+tab+enter moves it right.
    Ctrl+enter confirms the entry without changing the cell selection.

    You can change the behaviour of the enter key to put in a line break instead of moving down a cell in options.
