Many thanks Hans. That has made the dots appear. If possible I would
like to use the dot from the same font, especially if using a font
where full stops are diamond shaped rather than circular.

Is there any way to map the dot from the external font so that it can
be used by the \dotfill command?


dotfill is actually a plain tex command using periods and spacing from the math font / mode ... (maybe we should redefine it to behave differently in text mode)

you can use this:

\definefiller
  [myfill]
  [symbol=.,
   method=middle,
   width=.5\emwidth,
   leftmargin=.25em,
   rightmargin=.25em]

\starttext

    text before \filler[myfill] text after

\stoptext

Hello

I've followed the instructions on the Context Garden wiki to make use
of a different font. Unfortunately when using \dotfill the dots do not
show up. My minimal example is below. I think this might be because
\dotfill takes its dots from the math mode font which I have not set
up correctly.

Grateful for any assistance

James
