How can I take an exported PDF text and create a macro in Google Sheets (or script) to paste the text data into the correct location? What are some ideas?

The big disadvantage of the IMAGE technique is that the images do not display in mobile Sheets (at least not on iOS/Apple - I haven’t tried Android). It’s also very time-consuming creating the cells and extracting the link from Google Photos. If you don’t need fancy spreadsheet capability do the following. Open a new Google Doc. Insert a table. Click on a cell, and select Insert Image and repeat this often as you like or simply keep dragging and dropping from the image frame (local pc; Google photos;….) The table, including the images do display in the iOS apps and I hope someone can confirm this with Android, too.
