I'll guess you mean '=A7' (Section mark), which, judging from regi-win and regi-il1, is my guess for the character you mean. (On the mac, it's '=DF' or the eszett, which is less likely judging from your email address.) ConTeXt makes this easy: just use the macro \sectionmark . If the original document uses an "extended ascii" encoding for characters like this, you might find it easier to use this at the beginning of your document: \enableregime[il1] % ...or... \enableregime[windows] % as appropriate. Patrick is very right, and alludes to a (potentially) confusing topic, with font encodings and input regimes. They're actually a very nice, powerful aspect of ConTeXt, where you enter text using your most familiar method, and don't have to worry where each glyph is located on a day-to- day basis.
