I can see that: - In another font(s) (at least in cambria in your example) bold Greek chars= are OK. - \bf in math mode causes chars to become "vertical", i.e. when I want to g= et slanted chars, I have to call \it or \sl or \bi explicitly. OK, I though= t that the "slantedness" is kept by default when switching to bold in math = mode, but no problem to switch to slanted/italics font manually. - But I still have no idea how to "restore" Greek chars when using the *def= ault* bold math font (i.e. when not using \setupbodyfont[]. O= r do I have to \setup???font[???] explicitly when I want to use Greek bold = chars as well? > IMHO (I'm not expert in context) this depends on used fonts.

NB: I used to work with LaTeX as well - I'm still time-to-time solving "bas= ic things" (like that above) in ConTeXt. Best regards, Lukas > > P.S. My example works with mkiv but not with mkii.
