ConTeXt: How to use font optical sizes

I have a font with some optical sizes which I want to use. I tried two solutions (below), without success. How can I use optical sizes of a local font? The solutions I tried:
Using
definefontfamily, which gave me correct basic alternatives (italics, bold etc.) and correctly converted---to em-dashes, but doesn't support changing font according to size (as I understood from the docs).Using typescripts, which didn't give me correct alternatives (more below) nor converted
---to em-dashes. I was not capable to understand how to configure optical sizes this way (although it seems to be the recommended way).
With typescripts, regular italics were converted to semibold italics. I put semibold declarations on typescript, but not in regular italics. My typescript declaration and usage:
definebodyfontenvironment[default][em=italic]
definebodyfontenvironment[12pt][interlinespace=4.2ex]
definebodyfontenvironment[10pt][interlinespace=3.2ex]
starttypescript [serif] [garamond]
setups [font:fallback:serif]
definefontsynonym [Garamond-Regular] [name:Garamond Premier Pro Regular]
definefontsynonym [Garamond-Italic] [name:Garamond Premier Pro Italic]
