I too do a lot of work with Arabic transliteration, and I too have been fighting the related font issues forever. Going on 2 decades, now that I think about it. And I too have solved some of the issues by using IndyFont (though not with Garamond–my problem was a font that didn’t have small caps of the dot-under letters).
I like your explanations on the Behance page.
I would like to see a comparison of the text at the end with and without the improved kerning.
I also wonder if you’d be willing to share the mini-font of dotted letters you created for Garamond.
Nice work. And glad to know I’m not the only one fighting these particular battles.
Olaf
