Hi all,

I try to get a new font Sabon (Bitstream Classical Garamond) working on
ConTeXt. I've installed the font with the files available on CTAN and
I've than included the following things in my environment file:

\definefontsynonym [Sabon-Roman]      [bsbr0]
\definefontsynonym [Sabon-Italic]     [bsbri0]
\definefontsynonym [Sabon-Bold]       [bsbb0]
\definefontsynonym [Sabon-BoldItalic] [bsbbi0]

\definefontsynonym [Serif]            [Sabon-Roman]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBold]        [Sabon-Bold]
\definefontsynonym [SerifItalic]      [Sabon-Italic]
\definefontsynonym [SerifSlanted]     [Sabon-Italic]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic]  [Sabon-BoldItalic]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBoldSlanted] [Sabon-BoldItalic]
\definefontsynonym [SerifCaps]        [Sabon-Roman]

\definebodyfont [14.4pt,12pt,11pt,10pt,9pt,8pt,7pt,6pt,5pt] [rm]
[default]

Obviously, Sabon is found by TeX, because output follows and postscript
can be made, but the problem is now that the encoding is certainly
false, because als spaces are deleted and many characters are replaced
by others. Every line has a hyphenation problem of course, without
space.
First, I had the same things in my environment file, but with ec
encoding behind this, so:

\definefontsynonym [Sabon-BoldItalic] [bsbbi0]  [encoding=ec]

That doesn't help either.

Who knows the answer. I know that the fonts properly work with both OT1
and T1 encoding in LaTeX. How to work with them in ConTeXt? Thanks in
advance.
