This seems to be using txmi.vf (and .tmf) in mkii (I suspect that, I'm not 100% sure).
I have no idea whether Hans has already implemented reading the original vf fonts in ConTeXt. I suspect that we need to figure out how exactly those tx fonts work (what slot maps to what glyph in what font).
mkiv will read vf metrics when asked for, but as tx/px is close to default i didn't bother looking at it in too much detail
It is close to default, but it uses some vf fonts with all the glyphs on standard places. On the other hand Polish fonts use just normal tfm/pfb files.
if someone wants more complete support .. he/she has to contribute the right vectors (in the case of these fonts, i prefer to stay very close to the raw font files, i.e. no vf because then we know what we're dealing with)
No vf is fine, but ... can mkiv (at least in theory) read vf files?
How does one disassemble vf files otherwise? vftosomething?
