Just another workaround, or do you mean, that this is normal behavior?
This is normal, the simplefonts module passes the value also to \setupbodyfont which is used in the code to load the font. Wolfgang

So, is this the rule of thumb:
"You can set the size with `\setmainfont[...][size=...]' but there is one exception: with calligra-type1 you have to use `\setupsimplefonts[size=...]'."
No, you change the font size with \usemodule[simplefonts][size=…] *before* you set the fonts or with \setupsimplefonts[size=…] before *and* after you have set the fonts and with \setupbodyfont[…] *after* you have set the fonts. Wolfgang

Thanks. So I guess, the conclusion is, that \setmainfont[...][size=...] is deprecated. -- Peter

Can you declare a option deprecated which has never existed?
What is this? I'm sure, that I've always used this option without any problems (copied from some message on this list some time ago), and now, I realize, that it doesn't work, for *any* font! Sorry, there must be some bugs in my context-files, or in my brain... :( -- Peter

After a quick search I have not found a valid use of \setmainfont[...][size=…] in this ml .

?
The rationale (I think) is that a document has a main font size, (the reference font size) that you can set with \setupsimplefonts[size=...] Then, if you need to adjust the size of some variant w.r.t the reference size, then you can use \setmainfont[...][scale=...] (and not \setmainfont[...][size=...] ) and it's ok because so you use as reference the main font size.
