Is this font changing allowed/correct?

[Maurí­cio]

Can I switch fonts like this? I know something is wrong
because it doesn't work ('concrete' typeface is not used),
but I would like to know if I'm in the right direction.

Thanks,
Maurício

Latin Modern has no replacement for the Concrete fonts but you
can use the Computer Modern Unicode fonts.

You don't have to to load 'type-otf', it's always loaded by ConTeXt
itself with XeTeX or LuaTeX.

I got the 'concrete' name from table 1.11 of 'typography.pdf',
"The predefined body font identifiers for free OpenType fons".

This probably means I'm understanding something completely
wrong... What would that be?

Thanks,
Maurício

You're right, the concrete fonts are mentioned in the typography chapter
but ConTeXt use now two different versions for XeTeX and LuaTeX and in
the LuaTeX part the old files are removed because we don't have the  
fonts
in the minimals and better alternatives (e.g. Computer Modern Unicode)
exists for them.

Are there .tex code files I could read, or a macro I could
use, to get a list of the typefaces I can use and the files
and typescripts I should include and activate in order to
do so?

Thanks,
Maurício
