Thank you.

How do I change that in my setup?

My setup is creating the same stuff in different languages from XML input (LMTX using lua and METAPOST), which means I need to adapt the following setup (cyrillic and greek shown as the other languages with different character sets I use)

\startmode[JA]
\setuplanguage[ja][patterns={ja}]\mainlanguage[ja]
\stopmode

\definefallbackfamily
  [archimate]
  [ss]
  [Helvetica]
  [preset=range:cyrillic,
   tf=style:light,
   it=style:lightoblique,
   bf=style:regular,
   bi=style:oblique,
   force=yes,
   rscale=1.0]
 \definefallbackfamily
  [archimate]
  [ss]
  [Helvetica]
  [preset=range:greek,
   tf=style:light,
   it=style:lightoblique,
   bf=style:regular,
   bi=style:oblique,
   force=yes]
\definefallbackfamily
  [archimate]
  [ss]
  [Hiragino Sans]
  [preset=range:japanese,
   tf=style:W3,
   it=style:W3,
   bf=style:W5,
   bi=style:W5,
   force=yes]

\definefontfamily [archimate] [ss] [Optima]

\setupbodyfont[archimate]

\starttext

lua code creates METAPOST code which creates images with embedded ConTeXt 'vboxes' which again contain language-setting ConTeXt code for each piece of text.
