Re: [NTG-context] Typefaces ... how does this work?

      If you are not using all predefined font styles, you could set your
monospace, sans, serif, or whichever style you aren't using to the
font you want to use and use the predefined command (e.g. \sf) to
access that font.

I want to adjust my document to have Lucida as main typeface, but

I've skimmed the manual and the ConTeXt garden Wiki but I do not yet
    understand which commands I should use where and with which options
    to achieve this -- preferably in a concise way.
Could someone please explain and point out what most current
    documentation I should read and in which order to fully understand
    how to work with typography in ConTexT? (Obviously I am not a
    typographer or typesetter, I just write documents.)
I am in a hurry now to complete my document so I would appreciate
    concrete hints to help with my current need. Still, I am interested
    to learn a lot about this functionality in the long term.
Do you know the simplefonts module ?
I had read about it some time ago, but I had not yet noticed this Wiki
page :
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Fonts_in_LuaTeX#How_LuaTeX_handles_system_font...
How can I select a different typeface (that can be found by simplefonts)
for a specific region of text, like a few words?
