He practiced his profession for thirty-five years in the United States; in Colombia, South America; and, Lebanon, where he pursued his early education at the American University of Beirut (AUB) with a B.B.A. awarded in 1930. In 1940, he earned an M.A. in architecture from Yale University and was one of the last students of Frank Loyd Wright. He was the architect for the Lebanese pavilion at N.Y. World's fair in 1939. He participated in the language and script reform project initiated by the Arabic Language Academy in Cairo in the 1930s. Khattar's work focused on the Arabic script's technological and aesthetic reform; Khattar was an Arabic consultant to IBM in the fifties, architect, Arabic calligrapher, and Arabist to Arab-American Oil Company (Aramco) in New York City, 1950-1957. During this time, he made innumerable calligraphic works for both Aramco, and came up with his seminal invention, the Unified Arabic Font, which is an Arabic type system that simplifies the printing and teaching of Arabic, Urdu, Farsi, and other languages utilizing the Arabic alphabet.
