  Which version of After Effects are you running? AE hasn’t always supported exporting text layers to Flash.

  I see my text in the RAM preview and I am using After Effects 6.0. I just read that the text is a layer that cannot be exported to flash…so what is the easiest way around this problem? I am guessin I have to import images from photoshop….

  You could create your text in Illustrator and convert it to outlines, then import into AE. Or, upgrade to AE 7.
