Flash, at least in CS3 and lower, is typographically very weak. I would not recommend using it for any other purpose than Flash movies. You have already noted that you need to fix the poor kerning ... wouldn't it be better to use a tool that does not do bad kerning.

I would use Illustrator or InDesign for anything typographic, and then Photoshop, long before looking at Flash.
