Typescripts are Beware, the ConTeXt way of using fonts and defining font familiesexamples on this page work only with MkII / pdfTeX (i.e. neither XeTeX nor LuaTeX).

Sample typescript for the free text font [http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&item_id=Gentium Gentium]. Installation instructions are at [[Installing_a_TrueType_fontInstalling a TrueType font,_step_by_stepstep by step - Old Content]].A typescript must live in your project folder to be foundor in another folder in your ConTeXt path (e.g., even if I'd prefer <tt>(texmf)/fontstex/typescriptscontext/user</tt>...)
