[NTG-context] Why isn't font changing inside tabulate environment?

I need to make a symbol, checkmark, appear inside a table. It is from a different font. If I use this, it displays the checkmark in the document:     {\switchtobodyfont[garamondsymbols, 12 pt]✔} But inside a tabulate environment, it stops displaying the checkmark. Is there any solution for this? \starttabulate[|p|p|]\NC{\switchtobodyfont[garamondsymbols, 12 pt]✔} \NC \NC\NR\stoptabulate --Joel
