1. First, let's check if context is seeing the fonts that ship with OSX.
mtxrun --script fonts --list --pattern="palatino*" --all
palatino palatinobolditalic /System/Library/Fonts/Palatino.ttc index: 4
palatinobold palatinobolditalic /System/Library/Fonts/Palatino.ttc index: 4
palatinobolditalic palatinobolditalic /System/Library/Fonts/Palatino.ttc index: 4
palatinolinotype palatinolinotyperoman /Library/Fonts/Microsoft/Palatino Linotype.ttf
palatinolinotypebold palatinolinotypebold /Library/Fonts/Microsoft/Palatino Linotype Bold.ttf
palatinolinotypebolditalic palatinolinotypebolditalic /Library/Fonts/Microsoft/Palatino Linotype Bold Italic.ttf
palatinolinotypeitalic palatinolinotypeitalic /Library/Fonts/Microsoft/Palatino Linotype Italic.ttf
palatinolinotypenormal palatinolinotyperoman /Library/Fonts/Microsoft/Palatino Linotype.ttf
palatinolinotyperegular palatinolinotyperoman /Library/Fonts/Microsoft/Palatino Linotype.ttf
palatinolinotyperoman palatinolinotyperoman /Library/Fonts/Microsoft/Palatino Linotype.ttf
OK. So, I have a palatino that ships with apple and Palatino Linotype that
ships with Microsoft Office (I think).
2. Let's create a typescript to use this (I haven't check the font
license to see if you can distribute a pdf of this document. Please check
your font license!):
\definefontfamily [myfont] [serif] [Palatino Linotype]
\setupbodyfont [myfont]
\starttext
This is a test \bold{Does bold work} and does \italic{italic}?
\stoptext
That's it! Simply compile the file and everything works. Of course, for a
real document, you need to set the sans serif, mono, and math font style as
well.
