On 2005-03-20 and 2005-03-21 there was a thread on this list about using
the Times Roman font under the CONTEXT distribution for Windows.
I'm running into similar problems (also with the Bookman and Lucida
bright fonts) and I am curious whether the problem was solved and how.

probably a map file problem (make sure that your local cont-sys.tex file is up-to-date i.e. compare it to cont-sys.rme)

Dear ConTeXt users,
Last Friday I installed the minimal ConTeXt under Windows XP and tried
also to make the lucida bright font available. I carried out the
following recipe:
1. Download the latest mswintex.zip from Pragma
2. Unzip into C:\ (all files and directories are now under C:\tex)
3. Start a CMD shell and run the commands:
> cd c:\tex
> setuptex.bat
> mktexlsr
> texexec --make --alone nl en metafun
4. Copy all 139 lucida related .afm and .pfb files to c:\temp
5. From this directory run:
> texfont --fontroot=c:/tex/texmf-local --ve=yandy --co=lbr --ma --in
6. Add \loadmapfile[context-base] to cont-sys.tex
In TeXnicCenter I edited test files and ran the command
c:\tex\setuptex.bat & texexec
with the arguments
--bat --nonstop --pdf --color "%bm"
All went well and a test file using e.g. the bookman font produced the
desired result. But trying to use the lucida bright font gave the error:
! Font \*lucida6ptmmmi*:=lbmo at 6.0pt not loadable: Metric (TFM) file
not foud.
The error occurred after the following three lines:
\loadmapfile[texnansi-yandy-lbr.map]
\gebruiktypescript[lucida][texnansi]
\switchtotypeface[lucida][11pt]
Any help is highly appreciated.

Hai Sytse,
It looks like your new installation is conflicting with the old
(pre-texfont / pre-typescripts) support for Lucida Bright.
type-buy.tex in the ConTeXt distribution already contains a
typescript named "lucida", and that typescript maps straight
to "lbmo.tfm", but TeXfont probably created "texnansi-lbmo.tfm"
and a new typescript called "lbr" that uses those metrics.
So I guess you should try
\usetypescript[lbr][texnansi]
\switchtobodyfont[lbr,11pt]
instead of
> \gebruiktypescript[lucida][texnansi]
> \switchtotypeface[lucida][11pt]
and see where that leads you.
Succes, Taco

Thank you, Taco, now it works ok.
