How to use ß in a ConTeXt document?

How to use ß in a ConTeXt document?

[Karsten Hachmeister]

Hi,

Ok, now I have bookmarks in my Document.
Thanks for your help!

But I have a second problem.

In german I have to use the character ß (sz). If I type just ß I get SS in
my document, but in the bookmarks the character is correct. If I use "s (I
don't know if this is correct in ConTeXt) I get a ß in the document but the
bookmarks are not OK. The german umlauts (I don't know if there is an
english word for that) works for me.

In the header I use this definition:
\setupbodyfont[12pt,ber,ppl,phv,pcr]

this depends on the method that you use, if you use a direct char ß, then 
it cannot easily be mapped onto pdfdoc [well it can given a certain 
vector/trick]. When it's an active char mapped onto ß via the named glyph, 
then pdfdoc can handle it. This depends on the regimes used. Say that you 
use ec, then \enableregime[ec] when present should do the trick.

I'm in a hurry now, so ..
