Sadly, that page relies on type-pre, which is deprecated!
(Yes, the situation changes again.)

So, the situation should now be:

% Times, Helvetica, Courier:
\usetypescript [adobekb]   [\defaultencoding] % default=ec
\usetypescript [postscript][\defaultencoding]
\setupbodyfont [postscript]

% or, for Times, Helvetica, and Latin Modern TT:
\usetypescript [adobekb][\defaultencoding]
\usetypescript [times]  [\defaultencoding]
\setupbodyfont [times]

% or, for Palatino & Latin Modern TT:
\usetypescript [adobekb]  [\defaultencoding] 
\usetypescript [palatino] [\defaultencoding]
\setupbodyfont [palatino]

The situation is "dynamic" because, to Hans's increasing frustration,
the font files that get distributed change with just about every release
of tetex (which gwTeX is mostly based on) or TeXLive.

Anyway, I hope this helps in the short term!
