Did you read the thread "font encodings (glyph lossed..."? As you see, we have some problems with TrueType fonts. My font package from this morning is better than the old one, but still lacks at least the 'dcroat' letter. But your problem is another kind. I'd suggest to start over and use the latest Gentium distribution (1.02), but so far: What Gentium files do you have in your fonts tree? Which vendor/ collection names did you use? (sil/gentium?) - AFMs (not needed) - TTFs (texmf/fonts/truetype/sil/gentium/*.ttf) - TFMs (texmf/fonts/tfm/sil/gentium/*.tfm) - MAPs (texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/context/ec-sil-gentium.map) Did you rename all files to lowercase (and without spaces)? ConTeXt sometimes has problems if file names use uppercase letters. There should be ec-genr101.tfm and .ttf in your case, that's what TeX is looking for. If the TFM is found, you'll run in the next problem: Probably in the .map file there's '.pfb' instead of '.ttf' I always need to run texhash with root permissions ('sudo texhash'), otherwise the database cannot be written.
