jagged, pixelated text in aftereffects

[segfaultii]

hi guys!
please take a look at this:

http://washy.geniorxt.de/stuff/aftereffects/test_060501_fixed.mov

the left text is pixelated and ugly while the right text is fine. why is it pixelated and how can i make it smooth?
i already tried different export options and different fonts. no luck at all. i also exported to another filetype, everytime with maximum quality, but it's pixelated anyway.

strangely, this animation is crisp and smooth:

dunno why. i didn't touch the preferences at all.

i did another animation and stills, its pixelated every time. How can i avoid this problem?
thanks for your help!

This is really strange. The only thing that I can think of (off the top of my head) is that there are different settings for the layer quality (one on left, another on right).

Additionally, it could be that you have the continuous rasterization on one layer and not the other (or one has an effect that negates the continuous rasterization).

The only way to see what is happening with this error is to actually see the file.

hope it worked itself out.
