Probs with drop-down text in Word doc

I'd like to include drop-down text in my printed
documentation, but I'm having problems making it work. I have lots
of i-frames in my Webhelp project and, for some reason, they all
seem to have carriage returns in them. When I turn on the ''include
drop-down text'' in my printed doc options, these carriage returns
wreak havoc on my formatting.



I've tried removing them from the TrueCode, but they just
re-generate. I've also thought about writing a macro in Word to
remove them, but I can't think of a way to ensure it is consisent.
And, I have numerous long documents that will be generated from
this project, so it is not feasible to remove them manually.



I'd really like to use the drop-down text functionality for
my printed docs. Short of turning of the drop-down text, using
conditional tags, and duplicating text , I don't know how. Any
ideas?



BTW, I'm using RoboHelp X5.
