There is nothing more you can do from within ConTeXt. Check your PDF using the Document Settings->Fonts dialog in the Adobe Reader. If it says there are only embedded fonts named 'NimbusRom' or something similar, you are safe (this is very likely with current TeX distros) If you see any font name like Times or Times-Roman, you can forget about being 100% certain. You can't even trust the Adobe Reader. So, if you see "Times" in the font list, you have to fix up your dvips/ pdftex map files. If so, let us know what opsys / TeX distro (+ version) you use and someone will be able to explain how to do that, hopefully. Cheers, Taco
