Steffen,

I wouldn't suggest starting out with fonts via texfont, even though it's
a very powerful tool (for more about using it, see http://
homepage.mac.com/atl/tex/ ). It's much better to start out using
ConTeXt's built-in typescripts. Unfortunately, they're poorly documented.
Fortunately, Bill McClain has started mapping them out.

I found a few more combinations to add to Bill's, attached in the
fragment of an HTML file.

So for your example, try:
\usetypescript[berry][ec] 
\setupbodyfont[ppl] 
\starttext
A test W test Q test R
\showfont[Serif]
\stoptext

Although I'm a MacOSX user, I use TeXLive instead of GWTeX, so Gerben's
font installation may be slightly different. Email me off-list if you run
into trouble with this, so we can investigate further...
