Hans,

I have the following sample.

  \starttext
  \definedfont[TruetypewriterPolyglott-mELa.ttf]
  \input zapf
  \stoptext

I get a fatal error in the font file (both LMTX and MkIV).

Font is https://www.fontspace.com/truetypewriter-polyglott-font-f14955
(direct donwnload from https://www.fontspace.com/get/family/zmmx1)

I don’t know what is wrong in the font, but it would be great to be able
to use it with ConTeXt.

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

Hm, i will catch it but am not going to look into the reason (like some 
issue in the font). When I zoom in I wonder if typewriter fonts really 
looked like that so there might be more accurate typewriter emulations 
out there that you can try.

Many thanks for your fast reply, Hans.

The thing with that font is that it contains polytonic Greek and other
scripts.

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo
