I have taken it from Word and pasted it in the RTE.
I know that there is a table-content-element, but my users use Word and 
don't want to enter everything again.
The RTE is the right (and only) choise for them.

There is the possibility to remove some format in the RTE, e.g. "Format from 
MS Word".
Doing so I get a table which fits in the width I have available.
Is there a way that makes the RTE apply this option automatically?
(So that the user does not have to click and and if he forgot -happens all 
the time- the page looks ugly...)
