I do not know, whether this is exactly what you looked for. But I found a page by Christopher League, who created those virtual fonts (I think) for use in LaTeX. I had good success in using the stuff he put on his webpage as well for ConTeXt, and have set up a page in the Wiki, at http://members.ping.de:8062/context/show/FontSite with a description and some sample typescripts.
