Letter by Letter Animation in a Title

I would like the letters in a title to display accross the screen one letter at a time.  For instance, if I wanted to display, "Football Game", It would seem as though you were watching someone type F-o-o-t-b-a-l-l...instead of Football being displayed all at once.  Whenever anyone types, the letters appear on the scree one letter at a time.  That's the effect that I want to achieve.  I'm wondering if Premiere Pro has thast capability.

    Sounds good but what is the "Crop" effect?

    This called the typewriter effect. Alas not in Premiere. However it is in AE.

    Alternative is to use the crop effect or a wipe.

    To add to what Ann said, using the Crop effect (my choice, since it's CUDA accelerated) or the Linear Wipe transition effect with Hold keyframes would make this fairly easy. Hold keyframes don't "tween" or animate between consecutive instances of them, so you get an abrupt transition from one to the next.
