We have moved this off-list for a while. For now, if you have problems with
lmtx, just
switch back to the regular mkiv standalone.

Hi Hraban,
Thanks for the hint (and the proper fontfamily setup), I have forced reload ten
times now from various accounts; the issue persists unfortunately.
This might confirm Taco‘s notion that there is some bug lmtx. I’m running macOS
Catalina too, but as it worked with the standalone of
Hi,
FYI, my "context mkiv” standalone seems to be fine (latest download).
“lmtx” standalone (also latest download) not so much (same problems).
Looks like something is broken in ltmx’ TTC parser.

Steps to happiness:
1. Extract the ttc font to ttf
2. Copy the ttf files to your local texmf directory

I altready did that earlier as per the Wiki information (did not report it) and
just tried again.
With Arial:
\definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Arial]
\setupbodyfont[mainface,10pt]
with Optima:
\definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Optima]
\setupbodyfont[mainface,10pt]
It doesn’t matter if the font statements are before or after \starttext

No, ConTeXt doesn’t care what kind of font you define as rm/ss/tt, and the OS
has no say in that.

No,
It's noticed that Optima is a Sans Serif font.
Maybe it conflicts with MacOS way to handle fonts.
