Good, that's most easy for fonts.
I understand that I don't need to use texfont when using ttf-fonts,
with this version of ConTeXt.
Right.
But still need to write the proper typescripts, right?
Not if you use the simplefonts module (except you have a unregular
font family) or someone else already wrote them ;-)
Does the same apply to opentype fonts?
Yes.

Hi,
Thanks for the tips! But now a real example. I've downloaded a font file
called:
PlymouthRock 'SnowDusted'.ttf,
(Just a nice font to write Christmas cards; view it with Konqueror!)
and put it into texmf-fonts/tex/truetype/plymouthrock/snowdusted directory.
But what to do next is unclear to me!
Frankly speaking, fonts are a very delicate and tricky aspect of TeX,
which I've never understood, despite all the available documentation, sorry!
Regards,
Gerard Verhaag
