title: Can I insert matplotlib graphs into Excel programmatically?
body: <p>I am saving matplotlib files as .tiff images. I'd like to be able to then open an excel file and paste the image there.</p>
  
  <p>openpyxl doesnot seem to support image embedding. xlwt does but only bmp. </p>
  
  <p>ALternatively if i can programmatically convert tiff to bmp, that might help also. </p>
  
  <p>Ideas on either are welcome. </p>

  <p>However converting from tiff to bmp is acceptable as my volume of graphs is small (approximately 10 per file).</p>
