What I did to get it working with LaTeX was to modify the encoding
files I used to create the tfm and vf files to map what I need
(smallcaps, superiors, monospaced figures, etc.) into the standard T1
encoding. The issue isn't the fonts (since I have them working in
LaTeX); it's how to tell ConTeXt how to use them. What I want, in
essence, is to define things like SerifFootnote (serif, because it
shouldn't be specific to Hoefler Text), SerifMonoLining, SerifMonoOSF,
etc., and then to tell ConTeXt: "use the footnote font for footnotes,
the monoOSF fonts for tables, etc."
I'll send a simple sample file later, per Hans' suggestion...
