Hi Pablo,

I think this is a problem with the Unifraktur Maguntia font. I just
downloaded it [1], and measured it using \blackrule -- and the
x-height is indeed ridiculously low.

[1] from here: http://unifraktur.sourceforge.net/maguntia.html

    \setupinterlinespace[line=3.2ex]
    \usemodule[simplefonts]
    \setmainfont[UnifrakturMaguntia]
    \starttext

    xAAgfas\smash{\blackrule[height=1ex]}\smash{\blackrule[height=2mm]\\
    xAAgfas\smash{\blackrule[height=2ex]}\\
    xAAgfas\smash{\blackrule[height=3ex, color=red]}\\
    xAAgfas\smash{\blackrule[height=3.2ex, color=blue]}\\

    \stoptext

Probably best to take this up with the font designer? I have no idea
how a font is supposed to declare its x-height. (I get the impression
that `font-con.lua` queries some parameter called 'xheight' or
'x_height', but you should take these impressions of mine with a grain
of salt.)

Cheers,
Sietse
