I'd like to use the paladino font from urw as my body font (Its the one used in the MetaFUN manual). I tried setting:

\setupbodyfont[pos,12pt]

but it does not work. What is the name that I should use?

[ppl,12pt]

may work, but nowadays we say:

\usentypescript[palatino][\defaultencoding] \setupbodyfont[palatino,12pt]

It should be noted (with apologies if this is too obvious) that while ConTeXt attempts to provide a simple, high-level font handling interface--and does a very good job, all things considered--it can't do magic. Either of the above techniques depends on font names that are defined outside of ConTeXt--by the underlying TeX distribution, by you, the user, or by a local administrator. So if neither of Hans' solutions works, you will just have to dig into your TeX font directory (e.g. /usr/local/share/texmf/fonts if you are on Linux--don't know for Windows) and find out the exact file names. -- Matt Gushee When a nation follows the Way, Englewood, Colorado, USA Horses bear manure through mgushee@havenrock.com its fields; http://www.havenrock.com/ When a nation ignores the Way, Horses bear soldiers through its streets. --Lao Tzu (Peter Merel, trans.)
