This link is missing from that page; it contains step-by-step instructions for 
installing expert fonts, from preinstallation to writing typescripts:

http://dl.contextgarden.net/myway/expertfonts.pdf

But for basic system fonts Hans MyWay on installing Verdana should suffice. 
See also

(mostly by yours truly; I never knew till today that that how-to made it into 
the garden->)

You're right, my page is out of date. I will revise it eventually, but I don't
actually do anything with Context except when I'm typesetting a book, and am
stuck on other projects now. I'm way behind on new developments.

There is a bunch of links on this page. I've learned it with help from
Bill McLain's page (includes a step by step font installation), but some
things have changed in the meantime (typescrips,?). So it doesn't harm
to follow other links too.

Hope that helps,

Peter

Hello Hans and others,
  
  excuse me such a stupid question, but:
  
  It there any clear (step by step) description how to add a new font into context?
  I've already done many googling and "try&fails" but the success was  minimal. The typescript definitions in type-enc.tex and type-pre.tex  are almost a mystery for me...
  I hope that there at least a little bit of description on adding fonts...
  
  Thanks in advance...
  
  -Richard
