Dear Contexers, I'm logging in through webmail, so right now I cannot try your suggestions but I will as soon as I get home. I already thank everybody for responding. I am puzzled by this line which Hans wrote: \definetypeface[johanna][rm][serif][palatino][default] Hans further writes that [serif][palatino] is the main typescript filter and that [rm] is mapped on to [serif][palatino] I don't quite grasp this. - Why exactly do I have to refer to [serif][palatino]? - Do you mean that palatino serves as a default which has to be remapped when a new font is installed? - Where is this status of palatino registered? - And why did you chose palatino, rather than another typeface? Thanks again, Robert

The font is simply not recognised (log file message: bodyfont: unknown variant johanna). Of course, I am still miles away of getting my cyrillic font working under context...
that message is an indication that you didn't define it as bodyfont
for instance:
\definetypeface[johanna][rm][serif][palatino][default]
will provide
\setupbodyfont[johanna,10pt,rm]
the combination [serif] [palatino] is the main typescript filter, while [rm] is what it gets mapped onto; [default] concerns the size
