Sorry, Luigi, I meant http://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/attachments/20230401/1f8c6cc9/attachment-0001.pdf. According to type-imp-concrete.mkiv, text has the feature boldened-10 applied to it. Even with a variable font (which might not be the case in the link above), extending the font fakes the bold, such as in: \definefontfamily [mainface] [rm] [Source Sans 3 VF] [features={default, boldened-10}] \setupbodyfont[mainface] \starttext \input zapf \stoptext Evince displays it poorly and this is what happens in the link above.
