If you want it real crisp either use a pixel font ( www.fontsforflash.com or www.dafont.com - bitmap section) or you can import an image of the text. Another tip is try making sure your font is placed on whole pixels on the x and y axis 22x and 22y for example not 22.345x and 22.453y look in the info panel for positioning

Thanks for your reply. What do you mean with an image of the text?

what ever text you are trying to have real crisp. Make it in like fireworks then export is as a png then use it in your movie clip.
