I have a table automatically generated from the Unicode data files
available at:
http://developer.sharif.edu/farsiweb/ArabicTable.txt
which you will find useful. First column is the character code in the
Arabic block, second column is its joining class, and next columns are the
glyph codes in the Arabic Presentation Forms (A, B) blocks. It only lists
the characters that have all their presentation glyphs also in Unicode,
which may not be enough for you, based on the market you're targeting.
(It's enough for Arabic language and Persian language communities.)
I also have some experimental code for doing the conversion, but that may
be not usable for you, because it's protected by GNU GPL
(http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html). It is suits you, contact me
personally.
