Using a text font in type1-format is very easy, all you need is the afm and the pfb-file. The font files are put in the tex folder and to use them in your document you have to write a short typescript, below is a example how to use the urn garamond font. \starttypescript [serif] [charter] \setups[font:fallback:serif] \definefontsynonym [Serif] [file:ugmr8a.afm] [features=complete] \stoptypescript \definetypeface [mainface] [rm] [serif] [charter] [default] \setupbodyfont[mainface] \starttext \input knuth \stoptext The same has to be done for the kpfont but there is one problem, the archive on cyan doesn’t provide afm-files and you have to generate them yourself. Since the font provides only tfm-files it would be also possible to them but it’s better to work with afm-files. Adding support for the math font requires more work because you have to write also a Lua file where you specify which file is used for symbols, operator, letters etc. This isn’t very complicated (you can just modify the files for palatino or garamond math), you have to only look which files are used for the math fonts.
