I tried it and ... it worked! Thanks Hans!
However, I still think that the installation of fonts with MikTeX should be
looked at. It is not quite normal that for instance the generated file
ec-urw-helvetic.tex does not compile ...
Anyone who has successfully tried out some fonts with MikTeX, I am happy to
communicate!
Kris.

Does miktex come with the normal texmf (tex live) fonts? If so, doesn't
\setupencoding[default=ec]
\usetypescript [berry] [ec]
\setupbodyfont[pos,10pt]
some text in times
work?
