Issues with resizing columns and tables

Hello all. I currently have a collection of records I am trying to render out. Each record has a vastly different amount of data in it. 

 

One set may just contain a couple columns, while another contains almost 50 columns. The issue comes in when I try to render them out. 

 

Here is what one of the records with a "normal" amount of data looks like. As one can see, it looks fine

Here is a set where there is much more data in the record. This one is just simply a mess.

I recognize that changing the letter size in the render tool is a solution to making the larger sets more presentable, but this just messes up the smaller ones like this by stretching them out to compensate

I've tried setting the table settings to have an automatic width/column, as well as testing out custom sizes, but they seem to have no effect. 

Given that this is the case, to review, how can I have the column width automatically adjust itself regardless of how big the data set is without messing it up?

@MWon Try to increase the paper size by selecting custom size and adjust the size in the render tool

I have tried that and it fixes the larger sets, but stretches out and effectively ruins the smaller sets
