This is no reason why you have to use \definefont for each font you want to
use, write a separate typeface for for each of them and switch to it, you can
also select the size with this method. There are also many ways to influence
how the lines are broken, see below for a few examples.
\definenarrower
[adjustmargin]
[ left=0.1mm,
middle=0.1mm,
right=0.1mm]
\definefontfeature[default][default][expansion=yes]
\setupbodyfont[palatino,10bp]
\starttext \showframe
\input zapf
\startadjustmargin[10*right]
\input zapf
\stopadjustmargin
\start \setuptolerance[verytolerant,stretch]
\input zapf
\stop
\start \kerncharacters[0.01]
\input zapf
\stop
\start \setupalign[hz]
\input zapf
\stop
\start \switchtobodyfont[9.8bp]
\input zapf
\stop
\stoptext
