"One told me since ticketed separately i will have to leave the airport, get my luggage, then check in again."

Leave the airport?

I would not expect AA to through-check your baggage to AF on separate tickets. You will have to claim your bags at your intermediate point and then check them in with AF. You won't have to leave the airport, as that's where your bags will be delivered, and that's where AF's check-in desk will be. You will have to go land-side, and might even have to change terminals, however.
