Hi Zulfi,

There is no easy way of fitting to page a table in Word. I suggest that you try to modify the width of your table manually. There is no “fit to page” such as the feature that is available in Excel.

Here is a good article which features numerous ways of modifying column width and problems fitting a table to a page.

Your table is wrapped, which allows it to exceed the margins. Instead, set the text wrapping to None and then use Table Tools | Layout | AutoFit | AutoFit Window.
