1) I need to shift the title 12pt below the top margin. This is my command now:

\definefont[TitleStyle][SerifBold at 14pt] \setuphead[title][    style=TitleStyle,    align=middle,    textstyle=WORD,

     before={\blank[12pt,force]},

...

   after={\blank[3pt]} ]

But 'before' does not seem to have any effect. My document starts with \starttext\title{...}.

2) I need (sub)section titles indented by .75cm, regardless of the section number, so that in:

1      First Section 1.1    First Subsection 100    Another Section Title 100.1  Another subsection

\setuphead [chapter,section] [command=\myseccmd] \def\myseccmd#1#2{\hbox to .75cm{#1}#2}

That works great!

I must say that, looking backwards, the choice of using ConTeXt for my paper (as opposed to LaTeX) has turned out to be a winning one, although at the beginning I was a little afraid of using a typesetting system that is still under active development. With the help of the people from this list I have been able to easily solve many layout and typographical challenges (at least, challenges for me). So, thank you! Currently there are few examples on typesetting math with mkiv; maybe you can wikify someone from your paper ?
