    I hope I don't misunderstand your question.

    No font can do this. It's more a video or Javascript that animates any existing / embedded font.

    1. See here many (funny) examples: http://jquery-plugins.net/tag/text-effect

    2. Or did you wish something like this animation made with After Effects?

    I don't know a way to do this on a website without a video, because of the individually drawn paths for each letter.

    Anyway, the Type & Typography forum is the wrong place.

    anything. Can you help with this I'm working in cc2017.
