Export to PDF Different!?

I am having problems with my matrix that is embedded in a list. I used a
workaround to create a horizontal table (matrix + list). Now, when i run my
report, the row sizes of the matrix always shrink, even if i put CanGrow and
CanShrink to false.
So now, i haev set CanGrow to true, and have aligned other fields
(textboxes) to line up with their corresponding rows. It looks "decent" when
i run the report on the report server, but when i click export to pdf, all
the textboxes are shifted up and are no longer lined up. Does this happen to
anyone else, and is this a known issue (differences in rendering between the
report server and exporting) ?
Any help is GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!

You might want to check the properties for each cell in the matrix
control. Check the Format tab and make sure that: 'Can decrease to
accommodate contents' is not selected. Hope this helps.
