If you're using the Professional Edition of FontCreator, or the Trial Edition (the same program), you can use a glyph transformation to increase the weight. Horizontal and Vertical strokes can be modified by different amounts.
See this tutorial on Working with Transformations and this PDF file Using Glyph Transformations.
You can also use the Dilate or Erode filters when importing your scanned images.
