He already has a program that can make fonts.  Corel Draw!

Yes, the best is Fontlab. but he can create a font directly from Corel 
Draw like this:

FILE/Export
Save as type:  TTF - Truetype font

(In some older versions of Corel Draw, it may be in the File/SaveAs 
dialog box instead of in the File/Export box)

You can only save one character at a time to a font, and the process 
isn't obvious. Google for

Create fonts Corel Draw

and you'll find many tutorials and explanations of exactly how to do it.
