[MiKTeX] arabi package: fonts installation

[Shuaib H. <shu...@gm...>]

I have been struggling with getting the user_guide.tex to compile with the
arabi package from Yousseff Jabri. It promises excellent capabilities, but I
am having a very hard time getting my arms around the fonts issue.

My understanding is that there are 3 font families (with regards to arabi
package) : arabeyes fonts, farsi fonts and microsoft fonts. Surprisingly, I
have the microsoft fonts installed (ttf -> tfm,pfb) using the ttf2pt1
utility. My problems seems to be related to pdflatex recognizing the
arabeyes gnu font.

When I compile "pdflatex user_guide.tex", it ends with the following error:

!pdfTeX error:  (file aealmothnna): Font texhash;initexmf -u;initexmf
--mkmapsat 450 not found
 ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!

My arabi.map file says:
aealmothnna ae_AlMothnna " ArabeyesArabicEncoding ReEncodeFont " <
ararabeyes.enc <ae_almothnna.pfb

I have the following files:
./fonts/tfm/arabi/arabeyes/aealmothnna.tfm
./fonts/type1/arabi/arabeyes/ae_almothnna.pfb
./tex/latex/arabi/laeaealmothnna.fd
./fonts/truetype/arabeyes/aealmothnna.ttf
./fonts/truetype/arabeyes/ae_almothnna.ttf
./fonts/truetype/arabeyes/ae_AlMothnna_bold.ttf

I have also ran the following commands:
texhash; initexmf -u; initexmf --mkmaps

Why is pdf latex not finding aealmothnna? I think it is something as small
as file name mismatch, but a few combinations did not prove to be
successful. Can you please suggest some educated clues?

Thanks!!
