Use the Text Tool to choose a font that looks like handwriting. You can find a ton of fonts at DaFont. Set the text type to static text. On frame 100 or so on the timeline, right-click and select insert frame.
Create a new layer above the layer with text. Right-click the layer name and select Mask. Unlock the layer. Select the brush tool and draw a dot on the beginning of the text. Right-click frame 2 of the recently created layer and select Insert Keyframe. in this new frame, draw the next dot in the series. Continue this until all of the text area is covered.

Yes nelly you can do that. Just keep your menu and banner in the main file and create a target movie clip. Then using some scripts just load the "pages" into that movie clip... If you have further questions email me on thorne51@gmail.com

The hand script is useful, especially to show a logo, that way people who see it must remember it.
