Default Fixed table cells expand when copied into an email

I am gathering information from a few hundred people to put in a "then and now" book for a 50th high-school reunion.



I am trying to create a table with fixed-size cells to copy into an email for people to fill in and return. The cell content needs to be limited because each classmate gets a limited space in the book. I can't attach a fillable form because the recipients are mostly older people who don't know how to download or save files. All they can do is email back and forth.

I create a table with row height and column width fixed, but when it's copied into the body of an email, the rows and/or columns expand as the users keep typing in their response. I have tried pasting a spreadsheet into Word in all the different ways, but none of them works, either.

How can I get a table into an email that will not expand? Or maybe there's something else I can do???

Thanks!
