Thanks again for your responses.

I did try loading the simplefonts module explicitly, but
definefontfamily is still undefined.

I'm working on a large, production project, and the deadline is too
close to risk using unstable releases. Is there a context release since
Wolfgang's new version of simplefonts, that has been declared stable?
Given that his new version came out less than a month ago, it seems
unlikely.

Maybe I can get TTFs working using mtxrun, as Hans suggested. It seems
to be working on Windows; I need to try the same on Linux with our
custom font.
