Also, I only consider a type 1 font okay when it has both an afm and a pfb file and mkiv can handle that quite well (even beyond the regular tex encodings). Personally I need it for fonts that I have bought and don't want to buy again.

Same here, but I found it easier to convert my fonts to OpenType by loading them into fontforge and doing Save As...

I still have a mystery regarding the type 1 fonts installed with GhostScript, though:

\definetypeface [dingbats][ss][sans][dingbats][default]

this assumes a dingbats typescript

\starttext {\dingbats \uchar{39}{7}\uchar{39}{13}\uchar{39}{42}} \stoptext

{\getnamedglyphdirect{dingbats}{0x39}} ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
