Not sure if you guys ended up reaching to a solution that worked out in ease. Anyway, for whoever ends up in this page, their is a simple free solution if your editing suite has internet.

Just copy/paste your text into
https://convert.wajihah.com/
and convert

copy/paste the result to AE. Works with me on CS3 & CS4, haven’t tried earlier versions.

If you don’t have an internet connection, Grapheast’s software or Al-Rassam software should do the same trick (though I didn’t try these, just heard about them)
