Can you explain how/why the two ways of increasing the font size should have such different effects? (I have read section 5.8 and 5.9 about selecting bodyfonts and interlinespace but still don't get it.) \tfc is described as a "font selector" command (5.3.2). It seems to me that both \tfc and \switchtobodyfont[20pt] simply attempt to switch to a different size of whatever bodyfont is currently in effect. But there must be something I'm missing. (Or else it's just an arbitrary distinction, but that seems unlikely.)
Is it that \switchdobodyfont changes the *body* font, which engages the associated bodyfont environment... whereas \tfc changes the *font*, not the *body* font?

You can look into font-pre.mkiv \tfc augment the fontsize of a factor of 1.728 It's relative to the default fount size not to the current fontsize: {\tfc foo {\tfc foo}} both foo have the same size http://contextgarden.net
But interlinespace is not modified, so we need to reset \starttext OK: \input knuth\blank{\tfx WRONG: \input knuth\blank \tfc WRONG: \input knuth\relax} \page OK: \input knuth\blank{\tfx\setupinterlinespace OK: \input knuth\blank \tfc WRONG: \input knuth\blank} \page OK: \input knuth\blank{\tfx\setupinterlinespace OK: \input knuth\blank \tfc\setupinterlinespace OK: \input knuth\blank} \stoptext -- luigi
