    How to fool men for centuries
    Use some unknown symbols
    Make sure the words from the symbols are not the same length as the original text
    Once the work is completed burn the original text

    I got sloppy and did not repeat some tokens but maybe the author did the same.  Some voynich vords repeat but if you just had the cipher you would never decode it.  This is what I believe the voynich is but with the tokens in tact to be copied the same through out the manuscript so similar vords come up more often.

    Assuming a popular plaintext language, this would have been cracked decades ago. Also, this doesn't explain strange bigram statistics and the fact that some characters tend to preferentially appear near the end of a line in the Voynich manuscript.
