I just updated by ConTeXt (ver: 2013.02.05 22:32 MKIV) and tried again.
*\definefont* works but
\definebodyfont
[default]
[tfH= cmr12 scaled 7000]
still does not work and also wipes out definitions for \tfa \tfx etc.
So
{\tfa 1}{\tf 1}{\tfx 1}
will just yield
111
Thank you,
Devendra
My MWE is:
\definebodyfont
[default]
[tfH=cmr12 scaled 7000]
\definefont
[TitleFont]
[Serif at 40pt]
\starttext
{\tfH 1}{\tf 1}{\tfx 1}\\
{\TitleFont 1. FooBar}
\stoptext
