Suppose someone has a big letter "F" on his arm as a scar.  Any chinese symbols he could make it into?

Yes there are alot of characters to choose from, as the previous poster said. It just depends what he wants it to say or if he even cares. Here's one 年 its nian it means year, if done right the f could be converted into this and there are plenty more that look like they have a "F" in them.

Couple of hundred bucks if it is a nice clean signature (probably want to have it authenticated)  Unless you can read chinese...

A plastic or reconstructive surgeon.  I had a scar that didnt heal properly and my surgeon excised all the old scar tissue and made a new "seam".  Its still pretty big scar, but not as ugly.

You don't.  Chinese isn't phonetic, each symbol IS the word.  While you COULD get something that sounded vaguely like it, it might well mean something you hate.  For example, my name was Kathryn.  I was given the name Kai Ling.  And I can't remember what it means, even.

My tattoo is a scar from my past. It represents the importance of that time and the symbolism it still holds. I have it to remind me of who I am. I dont need it , I like it. My tattoo is of a dragonfly. It reminds me of growing up around fresh water creeks as a child and watching these amazingly beautiful pilots whizzing across the surface of the water. I had it put on at a time of intense transition from adolescence to adulthood. Dragonfly's also symbolize change. As I grow older its a lovely guage of time, and I love that it will be with me when I die one day, another change in my life.

It could be possible.  Scar tissue is thicker than normal bone, cartilage, skin, etc.

websites about symbols : \n\nhttp://www.symbols.com\nhttp://www.crossroad.to/Books/symbols1.html\nhttp://tattoo.about.com/cs/beginners/a/symbols_intro.htm\n\nHawaiian tattoo designs might depict squares, triangles, crescents and figures of ‘aumakua (personal gods), such as the lizard or shark. As recently as 1923, publisher Lorin Thurston told of seeing a woman with a row of triangular dots around her ankle as a charm against sharks, applied because a legend tells of a woman who was bitten by her ‘aumakua, a shark. When the woman cried out that he was supposed to protect her, the shark let her go and replied, I will not make that mistake again, for I will see the marks on your ankle.\n\nKauhuhu is the Shark God of Molokai \n\nIn Hawaii, the images of the tattoo Gods are kept in the places of tattoo priests. Each tattoo session begins with a prayer to the tattoo Gods that the operation might not cause harm, that the wounds might heal soon and that the designs might be handsome.

I'm working and studying in Taiwan, where we use traditional Chinese characters. Recognition was a serious problem for me until I started learning how to write the characters. Yes, I still can't see all the strokes, but somehow I can recognize even the most intricate characters far easier after practicing to write them. Guessing from radicals are very dangerous, because the characters with more that 15 strokes often have more than one radical in them (or so it seems to someone learning the language). You could guess totally wrong if you think you see a radical, but it's not really the correct radical but a set of strokes similar to some radicals.\nGood luck! I know it's not so easy, but try the writing bit. It works for me.

You can go to this website: http://chineseculture.about.com/library/name/blname.htm\n\nSelect the beginning letter for your co-worker's name and under the specified category of either male or female.  Once you choose the English name, and it will give you the Chinese lettering for that name.\n\nI hope this helps and have fun!
