how to insert a imagefile like a letter?

how to insert a imagefile like a letter?

[Jonas Stein]

bell.pdf provides a small bell in black and white as 
vectordrawing


i'd like to get that bell in height of the current letter "f"
on the position where i type \bell

my first test with
\externalfigure[bell][width=1em]
creates a bell with lentgh of 1em... but


\define[]\bell{\externalfigure[bell][width=1em]\ }
.
.
\starttext
\bell
.
.


fails.

How can i get a small bell? 
Kind regards,

\definefiguresymbol[bell][bell]

\starttext
… \symbol{bell} …
\stoptext

that works fine. Thank you.

the bell has the size of a small 'n' how can i scale it to the
size of an 'f'?

\definefiguresymbol[bell][bell] 
\define[]\bell{\symbol{bell}}
 \starttext
 … \bell …
 \stoptext

fails. Why?

Hello Jonas,
I did not know about \definefiguresymbol - it's a great idea.
I would not tackled through framed. For example:

\def\bell{\framed[offset=none, frame=off, 
width=1em]{\externalfigure[bell.pdf][width=1em]}}
It does not solve your problem?

Hello Jonas,
here is dimensional correction according to the dimensions in the parameter:

\def\bell#1{\setbox0=\hbox{#1}\framed[offset=none, frame=off, 
width=\the\wd0, 
height=\the\ht0]{\externalfigure[bell.pdf][width=\the\wd0,height=\the\ht0]}}

\definefiguresymbol[bell][bell][height=2ex]

\define\bell{\externalfigure[bell][height=2ex]}

Why do you need a command, symbols are the perfect tool for this
and with a symbol you can even do this:

\startitemize[bell]
\item One
\item Two
\item Three
\stopitemize

i'd like to renew this document:

http://jonasstein.de/lib/exe/fetch.php?id=download&cache=cache&media=signaltabelle.pdf

the tex-code would be more readable if i could write \bell\ \bell\ 

kind regards,
