The log file complains of missing characters ... Missing character: There is no A in font texnansi-utmr8a! I then tried it on http://live.contextgarden.net/ and the PDF loads, but Acrobat complains of a missing font (times) and substitutes Helvetica. I also tried many varied combinations and met with failure on each one. I realize that either the font files, or the means by which they are called within a document are in transition, but it would be very helpful if a sample document(s) were created which demonstrates and uses all the fonts provided with a complete ConTeXt install. This would serve several purposes: 1) it would demonstrate all the available fonts; 2) it would provide an up to date record of the proper and most recommended way of calling those fonts within a document. 3) it would serve as a test to ensure all the fonts were installed and are working as intended Perhaps such a document already exists, but I have not (yet) found it ...
