If you use Adobe Titler, the only way I know to do this is to make one title per letter, then put a sequence of titles together. For a paragraph, this could be dozens of titles. But it's not that bad to do--here's a suggestion.

Create your end title by typing out the complete paragraph the way you want it to look. Save that title. Copy that title in Windows Explorer--number of copies will be number of letters in paragraph, say 'N' copies. Now you have 'N' title copies of the same paragraph, so work backwards in each title by removing letters until the last title has only one letter.

Add these titles to your timeline. Before importing, this would be a good time to figure out default duration so you don't have to edit the time length of each title. A bit tedious, but it will get the job done.
