You are right that some things need to be fixed in ConTeXt - if nothing else, the map file could be removed from type-one and type.map. (Do not bother if you don't understand what I have written - it's targeted to ConTeXt gurus. Any opinions?) The file is missing, but all the needed definitions are inside ec-base.map (I guess, I don't find ec-bitstrea-charter.map anywhere in order to compare): bchb8t CharterBT-Bold s * [0.96] mdbchr8t }{} ... /usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/fonts/tfm/mathdesign/mdbch/mdbchr8t.tfm I suspect that one might need to fix or improve typescripts. Do you have some visual examples to show the differences? It would be interesting to compare the differences between bchr8t and mdbchr8t and change typescripts if needed. Moreover, math support would have to be added to typescripts - it could be based on mathdesign.
