True. That's why I wouldn't do it. Well, besides the obvious that has already been pointed out, nobody could read it in it's native font. I'd say it'd be a good 'encryption' scheme except you just need to CTRL-A and pick a new font to get around that. Not that it wouldn't stop anyone who wanted to from obtaining some of my handwriting and doing this themselves.
I do suppose you could tell this apart from actual handwriting because all the letters would be identical, whereas when I'm writing an a in one word may look different from an a in another.
I don't use my handwriting font to do my signature so you wouldn't be able to fake it that way.
I guess it'd be pretty safe, still, one less thing I'd want out on the net so I wouldn't do this even if it were (still) free.
