I am trying to copy a table that contains images from Google Docs to Google sheets, I have tried the traditional method (Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V) doesn't work, it just copies the texts from the table into the sheet but not the images.
You can however manually insert images in sheets by going to Insert -> Images, but the number of images to copy is large (around 650) so it will take a long time to manually do so.
I also tried messing with the xml structure of the doc and sheet (copying the table.xml file to the sheets) doesn't work because schema is different.
For context, images -
This is my table in google docs
I want this table to look something like this in google sheets -
Either in the cell or over the cell is fine.
But when using normal copy paste (Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V) it gets pasted like this -
since the number of images is >600 manually importing is a huge task.
Is there a better more easy way to tackle this problem ?

So what I'm trying to do is add images that show up next to certain cells while maintaining the ability to have a drop down that will sort through various columns. I want to add visuals because the community this is for speaks many different languages, and I want it to be an accessible sheet.
I've made an example of what I'm trying to do on this sheet with some placeholder images on the "Data" sheet. These images aren't carried over to the "Sorted Data" sheet. I know the query function on its own can't be used to bring images in from another sheet, so I want to know how I could get this kind of setup while maintaining images. This sheet is editable.
While looking for answers, I found this: Google Sheets Query Image to show up from Query result
It's the closest I've seen. I'm struggling, however, on how I might translate this to what I'm trying to do here in terms of sorting the data. I've also seen people say some functions don't work with a lot of images, only loading a few. I'm not sure how true that might be, but just in case it's relevant, there likely will be a lot of images on this sheet.
I'm completely open to anything I may have missed, any changes I could make, any other functions, and script if necessary.
query is not suitable for this job. use:
=SORT(FILTER(Data!B3:W500, Data!C3:C500<>""))
=SORT(FILTER(Data!B3:W500, Data!C3:C500<>""), MATCH(Z3, B2:2, 0), IF(AA3="ASC", 1, 0))
We use google sheets on smartphones for entering trucking load data. We insert 8 to 10 images for each truckload into a Sheets cell and it works perfectly. But, at the end of the day, we can have nearly 1000 images depending on how many trucks we've loaded. I need a way to rename and send each pic to a specific Google Drive folder so they're indexed and accessible as individual image (jpg) files.
We've uploaded pics to Drive first, manually renamed/indexed them and then inserted the links into the sheets with the specific truckload. It's extremely time-consuming, need to automate through code.
I've created a Google Spreadsheet with logo images in one column of cells, but when I try to create a table to add into my website the images do not display in the table.
I need them to display so The logos are visible within a webpage? Does anyone know why the images are not displaying in table format, or how I can fix this.
Not sure which method did you choose to display images. My solution worked for images embedded with the IMAGE function and not showing inside the new spreadsheets, but showing inside the old. I must admit I haven't tested it with embedded documents but it should work too:
SPACE character is an offending character in the new Google spreadsheets when embedding images using the IMAGE function. Replace it with another, 'safe' character like '-' or '_'
Not sure how much this helps, since I don't know what you did/did wrong, but here's a pasted table with images from the new Google Sheets. The only thing of note is that in the pasted table, all images scale to the cell size with aspect ratios retained, ignoring the parameters in the spreadsheet.
formula: =IMAGE("https://www.google.com/images/srpr/logo3w.png")

I have (or, rather, will soon have) a number of maps created in ArcGIS 10.0 and exported as PDF documents. The maps all show contiguous areas, being rather like the pages in a map book. There will also be a smaller-scale map depicting the entire area (let's call it the "study area"), but with less detail, rather like that page of a map atlas that shows what page depicts what area.
I wonder if there is any way to create thumbnails of the larger-scale maps and mosaic them such as to create an index map of the study area. A user would then be able to see, for a particular point on the smaller-scale map, which of the larger-scale maps depicts that part of the study area. (And perhaps see that map by clicking on the larger map?) Does anyone have any ideas I can implement this? I would prefer exporting the maps in PDF format, but, if I can't do all of the above with PDF, then any other format to which a map can be exported from ArcGIS, such as JPG or TIF, will work.
You should be able to create a PDF which does this.
What you need to do is render each page to a small image.
Then collect each of these images and add them as a mosaic to an index page.
Then put links from each small image back to the original PDF page.
If the hierarchy was more than one level deep you could repeat the process.
You need a PDF component to do this. What you want in terms of features is something which does decent PDF rendering. It's an easy thing to do badly and a difficult thing to do well.
ABCpdf .NET does good quality rendering so it's what I would suggest, but then I would because I work on it. :-)
The main idea: a user creates a powerpoint file with 1 slide, and this slide is inserted into a slideshow which is already looping.
A first idea I had was to convert the .ppt file into an image (e.g. using http://www.artofsolving.com/opensource/jodconverter/ or a .NET API), and then create a flash application which scans a directory for images(/converted slides) to show.
But this seems a bit like a complex solution, any suggestions?
You can achieve this using the insert object feature in PowerPoint.
Choose Insert from file
Select the powerpoint file
Check Link Checkbox
And its done. Any changes in the linked file are reflected in the already looping show. Let me know if you don't get it.
