Question

def factuur():
    wb = openpyxl.load_workbook(\'factuurvoorbeeld1.xlsx\')
    Blad1 = wb.active
    Blad1[\'K7\'] = \'logo.png\'
    Blad1[\'E22\']         


        

Answer 1

Unfortunately openpyxl does not support images at this time, see official documentation: https://openpyxl.readthedocs.io/en/default/usage.html

openpyxl does currently not read all possible items in an Excel file so images and charts will be lost from existing files if they are opened and saved with the same name.

So when you open the template file, the images are not read, thus not saved in the new file.

It might work if you insert the image again with openpyxl, by following the doc here: https://openpyxl.readthedocs.io/en/default/usage.html#inserting-an-image
