= How to use one of the provided fonts: 4 steps, 10 sec. =__NOTOC__
; #1Using fonts with TeX was once a Jedi fight, before XeTeX and LuaTeX development. FirstNowadays, be aware of the [[ConTeXt distribution's Fonts|21 using fonts provided]]is simple.:* If required, you can [[Mtxrun#fonts| regenerate the font database]] <code>mtxrun --script font --reload --force</code>
; #2. Give a name to the set of = Using 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''' (=rm):* <texcode>\definefontfamily[MyFontIdentifier][rm][refcode to the serif font]</texcode>
; #3You will find here the preliminary steps before actually playing with the fonts in your input file. Declare it as your default font family for your document:* Use At the command end, with {{cmd|setupbodyfont}}:* <texcode>\setupbodyfont[MyFontIdentifier]</texcode>one or two commands, you will make your document enable to use any fonts available on your computer.
; #4. Specify the font size
:* <texcode>\setupbodyfont[xxpt]</texcode>
To learn how to use different alternative styles of a given font, like regular / bold / italic, see the [[Font_Switching]] in the [[Basics]]. == Example =={{TwoColumnsUnderLevel1|Let see what give the defaults:<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>TwoColumnsHighlight
