Font Size - Exporting to Word

I created a directory from our database in CR and I'm just about finished with it, except one problem. The font size scales down a half size when I export to Word.
Which, I assumed, I could just fix easily by using a font in Crystal a half size bigger, therefore getting the needed font during export. However, because Word puts everything into text boxes, where Crystal had a field that was wrapped (I have Can Grow checked) because of the larger text, there's a blank line in Word. For example:
In Crystal with 8.5 font:
|American Industries,|
|USA. |

In Word after export:
|American Industries, USA.|
| |

Unfortunatly, I need to export to Word to create an index before converting to pdf. Does anyone know a way around this?

Any help is appreciated!!
 
In addition, I have tried different fonts and exporting to rtf, and neither worked. Thanks.
