; #1. First, be aware of the * See below on this [[ConTeXt distribution's Fonts#How-to_guides|21 fonts providedFonts central page]].:* If required, you can [[Mtxrun#fonts:Category:Fonts | regenerate the font databaseWiki pages in Fonts category]] <code>mtxrun --script font --reload --force</code> ; #2. Give a name to the set of fonts you want to use and select a first font:* Use the command {{cmd|definefontfamily}}. Sometimes, the name of the set of font is called the "typescript identifier"-:* Let's take an example, for a Serif font, for which TeX practice is to refer to them as '''roman''' ! Explanation (understanding) !! Reference (=rminformation):* <texcode>\definefontfamily[MyFontIdentifier][rm][refcode to the serif font]</texcode> ; #3. Declare it as your default font family for your document:* Use the command with {{cmd|setupbodyfont}}:* <texcode>\setupbodyfont[MyFontIdentifier]</texcode> ; #4. Specify the font size:* <texcode>\setupbodyfont[xxpt]</texcode> To learn how to use different alternative of a given font, like regular / bold / italic, see the [[Font_Switching]] in the [[Basics]]. == Example =={{TwoColumnsUnderLevel1|<context source=yes>\setupbodyfont[12pt]{The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog}\\{\bf The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog}\\{\it The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog}\\</context>-

And by adding the two lines discussed above* [http://www.pragma-ade.nl/general/manuals/fonts-mkiv.pdf 2016 Fonts manual, and using all the reference to Tex Gyre Pagella Serif font (texgyrepagella) we obtain:<context source=yes>\definefontfamily [MyFontIdentifier] [rm] [texgyrepagelladetails]for advanced users\setupbodyfont* [MyFontIdentifierhttp://context.aanhet.net/svn/contextman/context-reference/en/co-fonts.pdf the 2013 font chapter]as a separate document\setupbodyfont* [12pthttp://pmrb.free.fr/contextref.pdf#&#91;145,{%22name%22:%22Fit%22}&#93; 2013 reference manual]{The quick brown fox jumps over never officially released, with the lazy dog}\\2013 font chapter{\bf The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog}\\| {\it The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog}\\[[:Category:Command/Fonts | commands in Fonts category]]</context>|-}|}

; #1. Very similarly to above, just select a second font:* for a Sans Serif font, for which TeX practice is to refer to them as '''Sans Serif''' (=ss):* <texcode>\definefontfamily[MyFontIdentifier][ss][refcode to the sans serif font]</texcode>:* for a monospaced font, for which TeX practice is to refer to them as '''TypewriTer''' (=tt):* <texcode>\definefontfamily[MyFontIdentifier][tt][refcode to the monospaced font]</texcode>To tidy ==
* Work is also needed to merge content from [[Fonts/Fonts_in_LuaTeX| Fonts in LuaTeX]] in the pages above.
* For older content, refering to mkii, we keep a [[Fonts - Old Content|specific zone in the wiki]].
