Hi all,

I am trying to use the Bitstream Charter as a font. Unluckily,
all the umlauts fail to appear. Here is how I do it:

\definefont[bchr][bchr8t at 12pt]
\starttext
\bchr \"a \"o \"u \SS{}
\stoptext

Any idea why that happens? Could someone explain to me (or point
me to some documentation) on what exactly happens when I do something
like the above? Or is there a better way to do it (I guess so...)?

Greetings,
		Alex
