Dear Mohammad, Hi, Thank you very much for your reply. I forgot to mention that I had modified the fontsampler codes so that I can use it in ConTeXt with Dabeer module.
However, inspired by your reply I could get it to work in LuaTeX but not in ConTeXt with Dabeer module. Are there any other set of features that I can test?
