Default Urgent -Table is now outside margin

Hi,



Please help.

I have a specific margin that just changed for this project, it shrunk from .5" to 1". When I changed the margin, the inside (table) no longer fits inside the margin unless I change the font. I am not allowed to change the font/or font size so what can I do to fix the problem?

There are over 80 pages in this project, so I would rather not go back manually to reformat every single page since the project is due THIS SATURDAY morning. (YIKES!)

Please help

Other options available to you include narrowing the table column widths and reducing the internal cell margins. For example, reducing the internal cell margins from the standard 0.08in to 0.02in will reduce the overall table width by 0.125in as well as allowing you to narrow each column by that amount without impacting anything else about the existing layout (e.g. line-wrapping within cells).

Without seeing the document, though, it can be difficult for anyone to give more specific advice. Can you attach a document to a post with some representative data (delete anything sensitive)? You do this via the paperclip symbol on the 'Go Advanced' tab at the bottom of this screen.
