\emph{Erewhon} is a font package based largely on Andrey V.\ Panov's \emph{Heuristica}, but with so many changes that it is no longer strictly compatible with that package, and is offered instead as an enhanced alternative. (\emph{Heuristica} extended the \emph{Utopia} font family made available by the \TeX\ Users' Group, adding many accented glyphs, Cyrillic glyphs, ligatures, superior and oldstyle fixed-width figures in all styles, and Small Caps in Regular style only. It is widely distributed as a free font collection in OpenType, TrueType and Type$1$ formats.) \emph{Erewhon} is provided in OpenType and Type$1$ formats with \LaTeX\ support files in encodings T$1$, TS$1$, LY$1$, OT$2$, T$2$A, T$2$B and T$2$C. Changes made in the transition from \emph{Heuristica} to \emph{Erewhon} include:

\item shapes of some oldstyle figures modified to have more of an oldstyle appearance;
\item fraction macros based on the new numerator and denominator figures: e.g., \verb|\textfrac{34}{73}| renders as \textfrac{34}{73} and \verb|\textfrac[2]{17}{43}| renders as \textfrac[2]{17}{43};
\item the bold upright face has been made less cramped.
-\item As of version $1.109$, a Russian ruble glyph from Heuristica was added but is accessible from LaTeX encodings. For LaTeX users, a \verb|\textruble| command has been added, built as a composite glyph built from a scaled down P and two rules, providing an approximation to the actual ruble glyph: \textruble.

The {\tt newtx} package has been modified, as of version $1.26$, to offer a new option {\tt utopia} (or, equivalently, {\tt heuristica} or {\tt erewhon}) that uses math italic glyphs taken from Utopia and oldstyle figures from \emph{Erewhon}. Its slanted Greek alphabets are constructed from the {\tt txfonts} slanted Greek letters by reducing their italic angle from $15.5$\textdegree\ to $13$\textdegree, matching Utopia's italic angle.
