I can only confirm the results of Ville Voipio. As it looks now, the ConTeXt + MikTeX combination seems pretty useless as far as fonts are concerned, and It would be great if someone could investigate the problems. I would be happy to help as much as I can and to contribute with testing. Is there anybody out there who has successfully installed third-party fonts with MikTeX and used them within ConTeXt? If these font problems persist to frustrate me, I'm forced to: - either switch to another TeX distribution on Windows, can somebody advise me a package that installs easily, WITH a variety of fonts? Open Source is preferred ... - or switch to another macro package (LaTeX), but I think this is a shame as I like the ConTeXt philosophy. cheers, Kris Hermans.
