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!

    I have way too much muscle memory and vim macros for working with LaTeX to feel the urge to learn something else. I don’t have much friction these days with LaTeX. I have pointed a couple friends at Typst, and they have seemed to like that. That said, I’m not sure that I would suggest it to a friend’s parents, unless they were already in tech fields or general nerds. Also, I’m not sure I want to talk about output quality when you have “þe” and “worþ” in your response. Kidding. Mostly. Kind of.
