I am afraid it cannot be implemented.

Different margins for different pages may be implemented when I'll implement

page-layout editing (not very soon).

And even then - I do not think that it will be possible to repaginate

Document size can be fixed by assigning MinTextWidth and MaxTextWidth

properties, and removing rvoClientTextWidth from Options.

But it does not affect printing.

I can answer to the specific questions.

As for big tables - currently RichView can split tables only between rows.
