Jerzy, where do I find info on what is a Word export definition and how to edit it? Thank you!

I'm not sure if it will export the images, but you can indeed configure the export, when you copy the export definition in MT Termbase management instead of simply processing it. Then edit the copy of the export definition, which you can then configure.

I had a quick test with the free appstore plugin using this:

But this won't meet your needs either as you only get this:

On the RTF export:

It doesn't export the image (only the image name) and it certainly looks like a file that only black arts can handle. There is a lot of history info throughout the term record (my name as the person who modified it and dates and times) that would make editing and formatting it a hassle. 

It might be possible to correct this, but it is very tricky.  Adding the media image just gives me this as opposed to the image itself:

And you'd need to be able to understand how to use RTF coding to improve this format.  This might be helpful in terms of getting your formatting right if you have the time and energy to figure it out, and then you'd only have to add the images which would be a lot less work than you have right now:

For a long time I've had an idea to create plugin or an app to do a better job of this but there has never been enough demand for me to raise this to a higher level in the priority list.  I might try and see whether we can do something after we've got Trados 2021 out of the way (SDLCOM-2036).  Probably too late for you unfortunately but I think it'd be good to have a better export option for something like in the future.

3. Unfortunately, doesn't support Multiterm 2019.

I don't think the version of MultiTerm is relevant really.  So I just changed the requirements for the app and now you should be able to download and test it.  Perhaps you can use this in some way to at least get out the main details?

Thank you, Paul. So in the first part of your exercise, you have encountered the same issues I had: not only not getting all of the fields exported, but getting just two languages exported from a multilingual termbase. 
I see RTF looks pretty scary, as in every thing we don't know. Once you read carefully the coding, you kind of start making sense of the language. I will try to look further into this.

It would be late for me, yes, but sounds like a super idea. I really think it could be a huge plus to Studio to be able to consider terminology also as a standalone product, which does already, but as we can see in my case, it could be enhanced. This is, printing out a  termbase into a really good looking dictionary format, specially if you have more information (like in my case). I have worked in companies that have glossaries and style guides available to the entire company to check out and use. This could be a way of translation departments sharing everything they have already worked on in a very user-friendly format. More so, appealing to terminologists, as myself, to use this tool for purely terminology purposes. Maybe you could consider including a Bibliography manager section...it would be super helpful...

Thank you Paul. It did let me download it this time, but it shows an error message. I'm enclosing the print screen.
