Have a look at http://www.cool-fonts.com/howto.htm
They give you some hints on creating fonts and modifying them.

Assunto: Converting IEC symbols to fonts
Autor: Jim Eichner <[email protected]> na miamicom
Data: 01/04/98 17:27
We frequently want to use some standard IEC symbols in our manuals, and
we have some of them in some sort of graphic format (I'm not sure which
one). We also use things like agency marks, our product or company
logos, electrical symbols, etc, in manuals, product literature, and
internal documents.
What would it take to convert symbols to characters in a font set, so
that inserting them in a Word document would be as simple as changing
the font and hitting the right key?
Does anyone out there know how to turn a .bmp, .gif, .tif, etc into a
character in a font, and how to create a new font-set? Is this built in
to Word or Windows, or available as some sort of after-market
font-creation software package?
Any help that anyone can offer will be most appreciated. Thanks.
