Description
### Question
...
I am trying to fetch the tables from the pdf.
how do i extract the images inside the tables. My images are present in the last column of the table.
The structure of the pdf is as [text,text,text,image].
how can i extract each table in a proper format like parquet with texts and images extracted well?

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by checking Docling's current behavior on a PDF whose tables have text and images in the last column, then determine whether the requested text-and-image table output, such as Parquet, is supported. Done would mean a clear supported extraction path or a defined implementation scope.
