for that we have the fallbacks mechanism; of course one can mix any font but even then it always demands tuning, i.e. foo and bar can look completely weird when combined without relative scaling (which is what the fallbacks do: thereone chooses one main font and overlays other fonts properly scaled)
But I think fallbacks are very low level that users shouldn't worry about in general, may be such command can be a higher level interface for font fallbacks. For scaling, we can specify a size, some thing like: \setupbodyfont[arabic=foo,20pt,latin=bar,18pt] or so. Regards, Khaled -- Khaled Hosny Arabic localizer and member of Arabeyes.org team
