Using Ralph Smith Formal Font
Ralph Smith's Formal Font [1] provides a bit more cursive caligarphic symbols. They can be used inside ConTeX by
\def\mathrsfs#1{\text{\definedfont[RalfSmithFormalScript]#1\/}} \mathrsfs{ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ}
Note: Since this is an italic script, one needs italic correction \/
in the definition.
Another method to use the font is
\font\tenscr=rsfs10 at 12pt %bodyfontsize \font\sevenscr=rsfs7 at 9pt %scriptfontsize \font\fivescr=rsfs5 at 7pt %scriptscriptfontsize \skewchar\tenscr='177 \skewchar\sevenscr='177 \skewchar\fivescr='177 \newfam\scrfam \textfont\scrfam=\tenscr \scriptfont\scrfam=\sevenscr \scriptscriptfont\scrfam=\fivescr \def\scr{\fam\scrfam}
With these defintions one can use \scr just like \cal. This method has the advantage that it uses different fonts (rsfs10, rsfs7, rsfs5) in body script and scriptscipt.
