Hi,
I have an idea for a font, but since I've never done any, I don't know if what I'm thinking is possible.
My idea is to have each letter write a phrase instead of a character. For example, if I press "a", it would write "Hello", if I press "b", it would write "bye", and so on... The idea is not having something exactly useful, but instead have fun seeing what each letter gives you.
However, I wouldn't like "Hello" to be a single character - it would consist of the letters H, e, l, l and o. And this is my doubt - is it possible to do it?
I hope I made myself clear.
Thanks!

Re: Font that write phrases
This is possible by using OpenType features.
See the Rebus Script Font which converts several letters into a picture. One letter to several letters is also possible.
FontCreator doesn't yet support OpenType Features, but you can add them easily enough using OpenType Compiler.
See the tutorial Adding OpenType Features.

Re: Font that write phrases
There are lotsa fonts with words or phrases. Couple of samples:
Key a letter and get the words.
