the problem is that although the specs permit it (actually, this is why
pdftex provides means to force characters in the file that are not typeset)
i never managed to get it working (not even with the right vectors
generated), so for the moment context only generates the full resources
(conforming the specs) for ss/tt/rm styles using the build in fonts
(helvetica, courier, times). Context also tries to honor the field's style
settings (like slanted, or bold).
Another problem with fields is the lack of a baseline concept in widgets (sigh)

I'm having trouble controling the font used to display the contents
of interactive fields. I want to use the same font and size as the
surrounding text. Whether the document uses cmr or lbr, I seem to
get the same font inside the fields (neither cmr or lbr) and, while
I can set the face with, e.g., style=bold in \setupfields, I cannot
change the size of the font. Is the choice of this font beyond the
control of ConTeXt?
