how to choose a font variant "book" / LMTX

how to choose a font variant "book" / LMTX

Hi there 
I have a quick question: 

I was successful to install and use a new font in LMTX (New Computer Modern). All good except that I’d like to use the »Book« variant instead of the »Regular« variant (NewCM10-Book.otf vs NewCM10-Regular.otf). Trying many ways but the right one. 

please advise, 
can I define something similar like \bf for bold — maybe \bk for book?

… all I get is

hp@mbp16 ~ % pdffonts page1.pdf 
name                                 type              encoding         emb sub uni object ID
------------------------------------ ----------------- ---------------- --- --- --- ---------
CRBMBE+NewCM10-Regular               CID Type 0C       Identity-H       yes yes yes      1  0

my definitions are:

\definefontfamily [newCM] [rm] [newcomputermodern10]
\definefontfamily [newCM] [ss] [newcomputermodernsans10]
\definefontfamily [newCM] [tt] [newcomputermodernmono10] [scale=0.85, features=none]
\definefontfamily [newCM] [mm] [newcomputermodernmath]
\setupbodyfont[newCM, rm, 10pt]

Many thanks
Heinrich

Do I understand correctly that you want the "Book" variant as regular? 
Or do you need both?

Have a look into typescripts, e.g. 
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Alegreya_Typescript
You probably won’t need the features.

'both' would be the way to go, how can I set this up?

I don’t use typescripts just the definefontfamily and I suppose the book variant belongs to the family but is maybe an unloved relative ...

Hi!

\setupbodyfont[newcomputermodern-book,10pt]

works here.

Yes … that is embarrassing simple … and actually I do not need anything else (since no other family is involved)

Many thanks Mikael

Best regards,
Heinrich
