Actually, pasting an Excel range into Word, preserving the formatting and allowing for re-scaling is quite simple: Select & copy the Excel range and then, in Word, use Paste Special > Microsoft Excel Worksheet Object. If you want the Excel workbook to be linked to the Word document, check the 'paste link' option also. With this, you can re-scale the Excel object to your heart's content. You can even re-scale the horizontal and vertical dimensions independently.
