You need a typescript, that is something along the lines of
✃✃✃✃
\starttypescript [serif] [adobecaslon] [name]
\definefontsynonym [Serif] [ACaslonPro-Regular]
\definefontsynonym [SerifItalic] [ACaslonPro-Italic]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBold] [ACaslonPro-Bold]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic] [ACaslonPro-BoldItalic]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [serif] [adobecaslon] [size]
\definebodyfont
[rm]
[tf=Serif,
it=SerifItalic,
bf=SerifBold,
bi=SerifBoldItalic]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [caslon]
\definebodyfontenvironment
[caslon]
[default]
[iterlinespace=2.6ex]
\definetypeface [caslon] [rm] [serif] [adobecaslon]
\stoptypescript
\usetypescript [caslon] [ec]
\setupbodyfont [caslon]
\starttext
William Caslon released his first typefaces in 1722. %
Caslon’s types were based on seventeenth-century Dutch old style
designs, which were then used extensively in England. Because of their
remarkable practicality, Caslon’s designs met with instant success.
Caslon’s types became popular throughout Europe and the American
colonies; printer Benjamin Franklin hardly used any other typeface. The
first printings of the American Declaration of Independence and the
Constitution were set in Caslon.
\stoptext
✁✁✁✁
And for an even fancier design :-)
\definefontfeature
[historic]
[script=latn,language=DFLT,dlig=yes,hist=yes,onum=yes]
and replace the typeface definition with
\definetypeface [caslon] [rm] [serif] [adobecaslon] [default] [features=historic]
P-S for Idris: I just received my copy of the last issue of TUGboat, and
your article is absolutely great! That's what I used exclusively for the
above :-)
