Some basic starter font information

Here are a couple hints on typesetting Vietnamese in ConTeXt, using the fonts from [http://vntex.sf.net/ vnTeX]. Download and install the vntex, vnr (type1), and vnurw packages from [http://sourceforge.net/projects/vntex/ that site] (unzipping into texmf-local or the equivalent should suffice).

Add the following lines to your source code (or better, to your local <tt>cont-sys.tex</tt> file):
Assuming you want to input UTF-8 documents by default:
\enableregime[utf]
Set the default encoding to the Vietnamese encoding:
\setupencoding[default=t5]
Load the map files for the t5 files in pdfTeX:
\loadmapfile[vnr]
\loadmapfile[urwvn]
Unload the default CMR fonts:
\usetypescript[all][computer-modern][t5]
\setupbodyfont[reset]

With that setup, you can use one of the following preset typescripts:
\usetypescript[modern-base][t5]
\setupbodyfont[modern]

\usetypescript[modernvariable][t5]
\setupbodyfont[modernvariable]

\usetypescript[berry][t5]
\usetypescript[palatino][t5]
\setupbodyfont[palatino]

\usetypescript[berry][t5]
\usetypescript[times][t5]
\setupbodyfont[times]

\usetypescript[berry][t5]
\usetypescript[postscript][t5]
\setupbodyfont[postscript]
