Hi,
First off: at this point, you context installation is behaving
as expected, so that's good!
But there are still a few problems...
The metric file bchb8r is not in tenansi encoding, it is in
LaTeX's 8r encoding, an internal re-encoding that helps
implement ec (T1). \note{In the Berry scheme, bchb8y.tfm would
be in texnansi encoding, but that file doesn't exist.}
Because you supply context with the wrong encoding, some accents
will come out wrong, but besides that, this almost works.
The only thing still missing is the map file for pdftex:
\loadmapfile[8r-base.map]
\definefontsynonym[CharterBT-Bold][bchb8r][encoding=texnansi]
\definefont[MySecondFont][CharterBT-Bold]
\starttext
\MySecondFont
Hello, World!
\stoptext
That should give you a nice Type1 font (but not in texnansi).
Better is to use the ec encoded font in the first place:
\loadmapfile[ec-base.map]
\loadmapfile[8r-base.map]
\definefontsynonym[CharterBT-Bold][bchb8r][encoding=ec]
\definefont[MySecondFont][CharterBT-Bold]
\starttext
\MySecondFont
Hello, World!
\stoptext
\note{you still have to load 8r-base.enc, because ec is a
virtual font encoding.}
All of this is unrelated to whether or not texfont works.
Cheers, Taco
\note{some of this I did not realise yesterday, it's been a
learning experience for me as well}
