Werner:
This is the one that I think will help the most (taken from the Fonts
out of Context manual, pp 147 - 148 

"If you want to use Lucida, all you have to do when you have bought the
fonts, is to put
the OpenType files in a place where they can be found, for instance:

tex/texmf-fonts/fonts/data/lucida 

Of course you need to run MTXRUN --GENERATE afterwards so that the files
can be found.
