Hello to contributors and seek for help to develop an arabic tuluth font

I'm expertised on vector drawing on computers and dream to develop an arabic tuluth font depending on khatt of a master calligrapher (khattat). but I have no info about principles of Arabic font building. Latin fonts are relatively easy to build but Arabic is not. Matter is how to provide the command to fix the letters together when needed. I don't know how Windows do it in currently available arabic fonts. Is it time to wake up from my dream or should I seek this info everywhere?
Best wishes

I'm awakened from the dream

After surfing through khtt.net and it's links, I understand that currently my dream is almost far from me. Thanks to Pascal Zoghbi and his web site. we have an idiom "I need to eat a plenty of breads, full of owens". I couldn't delete this contribution. But I started to eat breads ;-). Maybe one day I go to bed to continue dreaming.
