works w/o problem in here.

under movie properties. Whatever is outside of the stage, will be cropped.
In your case an entire animation happen almost off the stage.

sorry can't help you, it works here w/o problem and Im using your file w/o any
modifications. Just the stage size, nothing else.

try to change font, perhaps the font on your computer is not suitable.
