    try to avoid ever scaling tables and absolutely always avoid specifying both height and width when scaling, otherwise you are specifying that the text is to be distorted and you get what you ask for! begin{adjustbox}{width=15cm, height=5.0cm}

    you said the second table isn't correct but the font is visibly distorted in both, remove the height= setting on both tables (although removing adjustbox altogether would be better. Note that no one can run your example as you only posted a fragment. Without knowing your page size it is hard to suggest how to format the table without scaling.

    try to avoid ever scaling tables and absolutely always avoid specifying both height and width when scaling, otherwise you are specifying that the text is to be distorted and you get what you ask for! begin{adjustbox}{width=15cm, height=5.0cm}

    you said the second table isn't correct but the font is visibly distorted in both, remove the height= setting on both tables (although removing adjustbox altogether would be better. Note that no one can run your example as you only posted a fragment. Without knowing your page size it is hard to suggest how to format the table without scaling.

I marked up your first table so that it fits in A4 without adjustbox but note that the actual table data is really quite small, the space is all taken up with over-long headings. I did not change them but with yoru subject knowledge you can perhaps come up with more abbreviated headings to make the table more readable. It would also loo a lot better without the horizontal and vertical lines.

      Note the second table isn't used here as I added an extra end{document}: the same styling can be applied to both tables once the first table styling is complete.

        I marked up your first table so that it fits in A4 without adjustbox but note that the actual table data is really quite small, the space is all taken up with over-long headings. I did not change them but with yoru subject knowledge you can perhaps come up with more abbreviated headings to make the table more readable. It would also loo a lot better without the horizontal and vertical lines.
