I don't think this is specifically a ConTeXt question but there are some
font gurus on this list.

I have written a font-ppl.tex for the Palatino font  it has

\definefontsynonym [Serif]            [Palatino-Roman]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBold]        [Palatino-Bold]
\definefontsynonym [SerifItalic]      [Palatino-Italic]
\definefontsynonym [SerifSlanted]     [Palatino-Slanted]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic]  [Palatino-BoldItalic]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBoldSlanted] [Palatino-BoldSlanted]
\definefontsynonym [SerifCaps]        [Palatino-Roman]

In font-fit.tex I have added

\definefontsynonym [Palatino-Roman]           [pplr]  [encoding=texnansi]
\definefontsynonym [Palatino-Italic]          [pplri] [encoding=texnansi]
\definefontsynonym [Palatino-Slanted]         [pplro] [encoding=texnansi]
\definefontsynonym [Palatino-Bold]            [pplb]  [encoding=texnansi]
\definefontsynonym [Palatino-BoldItalic]      [pplbi] [encoding=texnansi]
\definefontsynonym [Palatino-BoldSlanted]     [pplbo] [encoding=texnansi]

pdftex.conf already contained the lines

pplb8r "TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont" <8r.enc <uplb8a.pfb
pplbi8r "TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont" <8r.enc <uplbi8a.pfb
pplbo8r ".167 SlantFont TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont" <8r.enc <uplb8a.pfb
pplr8r "TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont" <8r.enc <uplr8a.pfb
pplri8r "TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont" <8r.enc <uplri8a.pfb
pplro8r ".167 SlantFont TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont" <8r.enc <uplr8a.pfb

Now \setupbodyfont[ppl] gives me Palatino in with appropriate variants.
Accented letters work fine but the sharp S doesn't come up, ` comes out at
' and there seem to be no ligatures.

Is this an encoding problem or are these likely to be missing from the
font?  I have tried various encodings (with \useencoding), all of which
give me the same thing.
