Modified extract_cells() to detect and extract image blocks (type==1) within table cells, not just text blocks (type==0). Changes: - Updated extract_cells() to accept page and document parameters - Added logic to detect image blocks within cell bounding boxes - Implemented image extraction and saving for cells with images - Images are now embedded in cell markdown as  syntax - Updated table_to_markdown() and table_extract() signatures - Updated calls in document_layout.py to pass page/document context - Added test script to demonstrate the fix When write_images=True or embed_images=True, images found in table cells are now properly extracted and referenced inline within the cell markdown, resolving the issue where images appeared below tables.
This fix enables images to appear inside their corresponding table cells instead of being extracted separately below the table. Changes for LEGACY MODE (pymupdf_rag.py): - Added add_images_to_table_markdown() function to detect images within table cell boundaries - Images with >50% overlap with a cell are assigned to that cell - Generates unique filenames for table cell images - Supports both write_images and embed_images modes - Inserts  markdown syntax inline with cell text - Updated all 3 locations where table.to_markdown() is called Changes for LAYOUT MODE (document_layout.py): - Updated table_blocks to include image blocks (type==1) - Modified extract_cells() to detect and extract images in cells - Added page/document parameters to table extraction functions - Images are extracted and referenced inline in cells TESTING: Fully tested with embedded images in PDFs. All images correctly appear inside their table cells in the markdown output. Before fix: | Col1 | Col2 | Image | |---|---|---| | Text | Text | |  After fix: | Col1 | Col2 | Image | |---|---|---| | Text | Text |  | Resolves the requested behavior from Issue pymupdf#21.
