Font tutorial is missing.
Here you have some examples, but they are outdated:
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Fonts_in_XeTeX
One feature that only works with XeTeX is this one (copied from wiki):
\definetypeface[Serapion][rm][Xserif][Serapion Pro]
\setupbodyfont[Serapion, 12pt]
this could also be:
% no idea about proper name of that font; try to run "fc-list Gentium"
\definetypeface[gentium-basic][rm][Xserif][Gentium Basic]
\setupbodyfont[gentium-basic, 12pt]
This will automatically assign bold, italic & bold italic. This
doesn't work with LuaTeX (not because it cannot work, but because it
has not been implemented).
The procedure that works with both LuaTeX & XeTeX & basically does
(almost) the same:
\starttypescript[serif][gentium-basic]
\definefontsynonym[Serif] [GentiumBasic]
\definefontsynonym[SerifItalic] [GentiumBasicItalic]
\definefontsynonym[SerifBold] [GentiumBasicBold]
\definefontsynonym[SerifBoldItalic][GentiumBasicBoldItalic]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript[serif][gentium-basic]
\definefontsynonym[GentiumBasic] [file:GenBasR] [features=default]
\definefontsynonym[GentiumBasicItalic] [file:GenBasI] [features=default]
\definefontsynonym[GentiumBasicBold] [file:GenBasB] [features=default]
\definefontsynonym[GentiumBasicBoldItalic][file:GenBasBI][features=default]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript[gentium-basic]
\definetypeface[gentium][rm][serif][gentium-basic][default]
\stoptypescript
The only difference is that Xsans uses the installed font (needs to be
available to other applications as well; alternative is to call
"name:" in all the definitions above), while "file:" will use the font
file from somewhere in texmf tree (kpathsea needs to see it).
