The original plaintext -> Cipher/square alphabet -> voynichese process would be the source of those rules, and decoding them back would provide the original plaintext.
I meant: if you want to mimic the positional nature of Voynichese glyphs and lower the 2nd order character entropy (h2) to match the h2 of Voynichese, you need more constraints: enforcing many rare or forbidden combinations one way or another is a way to achieve this. Inserting spaces is a way but it would create (too) many short words to look like Voynichese.
Using one character (letter or symbol) for several plaintext letters makes the next character less predictable after any given character, because there are more possibilities. This is the wrong way to go: if you want a ciphertext that is more Voynichese-like, you need to make the next character more predictable.
