Fontspec is written for (Xe)LaTeX only (admittedly, it has some more advanced features in comparison to ConTeXt mechanisms), but both XeTeX and LuaTeX should nevertheless work OK with ConTeXt with no special package or module. Blame me for not updating the "Fonts in XeTeX" page on Wiki. > 8) Is anyone proficient with ConTeXt going to the Cork TeX User Group meeting? There is also a ConTeXt meeting in August (Easyjet flies from Stansted almost directly to the conference site), so if you want some more fun next to the lake in the middle of Alps, in a small country that you have probably never visited before, you're more than welcome to come.
