Let's take a example, we want to use [https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Noto+Serif Noto Serif]. The google website enable us to download a zip file with the 4 alternative styles:
* Regular 400
* Regular 400 italic
* Bold 700

\stoptypescript
\definefontfamily Finally, for older content, refering to mkii, we keep a [MyFontIdentifier[Fonts - Old Content|specific zone in the wiki]] . Work is also need to merge content of [[rmFonts_in_LuaTeX] [notoserif]here.

== You want to play with bigger set of font ? ==
For example, how to use the 7 weights of Noto Serif SC ?
* Extra-light 200
* Light 300
* Regular 400
* Medium 500
* Semi-bold 600
* Bold 700
* Black 900
You have to define specific name like
* \starttypescript [serif] [notoserifscextralight]
* \starttypescript [serif] [notoserifsclight]
* \starttypescript [serif] [notoserifscreg]
* \starttypescript [serif] [notoserifscmed]
and you will switch between each other with \switchtobodyfont[notoserifscxxx] like it's done [[ConTeXt_distribution's_Fonts#Overview| for this example of the available fonts]].
There are any ready to go typpescript file, tex/texmf-context/tex/context/fonts/mkiv/ for example :

I just have realised that \definefont requires fontname of font not identifier neither familyname.
