The new messages lead sometimes in the wrong direction, show us more
information from the command line where you can see which command
is really undefined.

When you want a different font for the titlepage then switch
to helvetica *in* the standardmakeup environment and don’t switch
font before and after the environment.

\setupbodyfont[palatino]

\startsetups[titlepage]
\switchtobodyfont[helvetica]
\stopsetups

\starttext

\startstandardmakeup[align=middle,setups=titlepage]

How to make a document.

\stopstandardmakeup

...

\stoptext
