How is this achieved??

I have a client who has requested an illustration style I have never done. I want to find a way to filter a photo and instead of ending up with halftone "dots" I want to fill with type/letters.... I work in Painter, Illustrator and Photoshop. Does anyone know if there is a simple way to achieve this? Or is there another software that can achieve this?

Thanks for any help or suggestions.

There are websites I've seen in the past that do exactly this. For more search 'Image to text' on Google.
