Not competely trivial, but it is a recurring theme, for sure. First, here is an input file that should actually work: \usetypescript[adobekb][8r,ec] \usetypescript[palatino][ec] \switchtobodyfont[palatino,11pt] \starttext Hello world \stoptext The problem with your input is that you have to specify an encoding (or a set of encodings) to \usetypescript. That's what the extra "[ec]" is for on the second line of my example. The other problem is that you do not have palatino installed in way that is usable by a default ConTeXt installation. For palatino to work, you have three options : a. install the font family using texfont b. download cont-fnt.zip from the pragma site c. load the latex psnfss compatibity typescripts (as above) More on this is on the Wiki, http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Fonts Cheers, Taco
