One of the biggest challenges in selecting a font for TeX or LaTeX
is that there are not very many math fonts that match the plethora
of available text fonts. It's reasonably easy to use an arbitrary
Postscript Type&nbsp;1 font in TeX for text (see Philipp Lehman's Font
Installation Guide&nbsp;[<A HREF="#CTANfontinstgd"><CITE>1</CITE></A>]), but obtaining and configuring
a matching math font from scratch is a demanding task. Thus, there
are few math fonts for TeX, and in particular very few free ones.
However, in the past few years, several very nice free fonts have
been released. The goal of this article is to list all of the free
math fonts and to provide examples.<BR>
<BR>
&#8220;Free&#8221; here means fonts that are free to use (both commercially
and non-commercially) and free to distribute, but not necessarily
free to modify. I also am biased towards listing fonts that have outline
versions in PostScript Type&nbsp;1 format suitable for embedding in Postscript
PS or Adobe Acrobat PDF files. Donald E. Knuth originally designed
the METAFONT  system for producing fonts for TeX in bitmap format.
PS or PDF files that have embedded bitmap fonts do not display well
in Adobe Acrobat Reader,<SUP><A NAME="text3" HREF="#note3">3</A></SUP> to the point of being almost unreadable on the screen, and are also
noticeable when printing at extremely high resolutions (on photo-setters,
for instance). Since outline fonts contain mathematical descriptions
of the curves used in each glyph, they can be scaled to any resolution
while retaining image quality.<BR>
<BR>
The fonts listed here are categorized according to their origin: whether
originally designed for TeX, related to the standard Postscript
fonts, or other free fonts. A font's origin does not particularly
bear on its quality or suitability for typesetting mathematics. No
recommendations or evaluations of the fonts are given here, as people's
tastes in fonts vary greatly. The goal of this survey is simply to
make authors aware of all their options.<BR>
<BR>
Most of the fonts can be selected by including a single package in
the preamble of the user's LaTeX file (the <EM>preamble</EM> is the
section after &#8220;<TT>\documentclass{}</TT>&#8221; and
before &#8220;<TT>\begin{document}</TT>&#8221;). The line
or lines to include for each font are listed in the caption of the
sample figure. For example &#8220;<TT>\usepackage{fourier}</TT>&#8221;
uses Utopia and Fourier-GUTenberg, as shown in the sample LaTeX
file in Section&nbsp;<A HREF="#sec:Creation">6</A>.<BR>
<BR>
Walter A. Schmidt also has a survey in German of math fonts&nbsp;[<A HREF="#WASmathfonts"><CITE>3</CITE></A>]
that concentrates more on commercial fonts. Schmidt's survey has several
examples that show different pairings between text fonts and math
fonts.<BR>

These fonts were originally designed for use with TeX, using either
METAFONT  or MetaType1&nbsp;[<A HREF="#CTANmetatype1"><CITE>2</CITE></A>].<BR>

<!--TOC paragraph Computer Modern:-->

<H5 CLASS="paragraph">Computer Modern:</H5><!--SEC END -->

Knuth created Computer Modern&nbsp;[<A HREF="#CMBook"><CITE>5</CITE></A>] as the default font
for TeX. The font set includes serif, sans serif, and monospaced
text faces, and corresponding math fonts. The math symbol set is very
complete. Computer Modern is <EM>the</EM> font for TeX, which leads
some to claim that the font is overused. The characters are fairly
thin and light, and so are not as readable on screen in small sizes
or from high-resolution laser printers.<SUP><A NAME="text4" HREF="#note4">4</A></SUP> In a comparison by Raph Levien&nbsp;[<A HREF="#CMRgain"><CITE>6</CITE></A>], the printing in
Knuth's <EM>Digital Typography</EM>&nbsp;[<A HREF="#DigTyp"><CITE>7</CITE></A>] is heavier than
the digital version or from a laser printer.<BR>
<BR>
Type&nbsp;1 versions of Computer Modern from Blue Sky Research and Y&amp;Y,
Inc. have been made freely available by the American Mathematical
Society (AMS) and a collection of publishers and other technical companies&nbsp;[<A HREF="#CTANbluesky"><CITE>8</CITE></A><CITE>, </CITE><A HREF="#bluesky"><CITE>4</CITE></A>].
Basil K. Malyshev has also released a free Type&nbsp;1 version of Computer
Modern&nbsp;[<A HREF="#CTANbakoma"><CITE>9</CITE></A>], originally for use with his TeX system
BaKoMa TeX.<BR>
<BR>
Computer Modern has been extended to include more characters, particularly
for non-English European languages. These fonts include European Computer
Modern by Jörg Knappen and Norbert Schwarz (METAFONT  only) [<A HREF="#CTANec"><CITE>10</CITE></A>];
Tt2001 by Szabó Péter (converted into Type&nbsp;1 format from METAFONT 
sources using <TT>textrace</TT>; Tt2001 has been superseded by CM-Super,
which Péter recommends) [<A HREF="#textrace"><CITE>12</CITE></A><CITE>, </CITE><A HREF="#CTANtt2001"><CITE>11</CITE></A>]; CM-Super by
Vladimir Volovich (also converted using <TT>textrace</TT>) [<A HREF="#CM-Super"><CITE>14</CITE></A><CITE>, </CITE><A HREF="#CTANcm-super"><CITE>13</CITE></A>];
and Latin Modern by Bogus&#322;aw Jackowski and Janusz M. Nowacki (extended
from the Blue Sky AMS fonts using MetaType1) [<A HREF="#LatinModern"><CITE>16</CITE></A><CITE>, </CITE><A HREF="#CTANlm"><CITE>15</CITE></A>]. <BR>
<BR>
The SliTeX font (<TT>lcmss</TT>) is a sans serif text face that
has wide letters and high <EM>x</EM> height. Its high readability makes
it extremely suitable for slide presentations. However, there is no
matching math font. SliTeX sans serif can be set as the primary
text font using TeXPower's <TT>tpslifonts.sty</TT>&nbsp;[<A HREF="#texpower"><CITE>17</CITE></A>].<BLOCKQUOTE CLASS="figure">

The Concrete font was created by Knuth for his book <EM>Concrete
Mathematics</EM>&nbsp;[<A HREF="#concretebook"><CITE>20</CITE></A>]. Hermann Zapf was commissioned
by the AMS to create the math font Euler for use in <EM>Concrete
Mathematics</EM>. Type&nbsp;1 versions of Concrete in T1 encoding are available
in the CM-Super collection&nbsp;[<A HREF="#CTANcm-super"><CITE>13</CITE></A>], and Type&nbsp;1 versions
of Euler are available in the Blue Sky collection from the AMS&nbsp;[<A HREF="#CTANbluesky"><CITE>8</CITE></A>]

When Adobe introduced Postscript in 1984, they defined 35 core fonts
(in 10 typefaces) that must be present in all Postscript interpreters.
In 1996, URW++ released a replacement set for the core fonts under
the GNU General Public License. The URW++ fonts were primarily released
for use with Ghostscript, a free Postscript interpreter. Table&nbsp;<A HREF="#cap:CorePostscriptFonts">1</A>

Young Ryu created the pxfonts collection&nbsp;[<A HREF="#CTANpxfonts"><CITE>34</CITE></A>], which

<H5 CLASS="paragraph">Times and txfonts, Belleek, mathptmx, or mbtimes:</H5><!--SEC END -->

Young Ryu created the txfonts collection&nbsp;[<A HREF="#CTANtxfonts"><CITE>38</CITE></A>], which
contains Greek and other letter-like symbols, as well as a complete
set of geometric symbols, including the AMS symbols. The <TT>txfonts</TT>
package also includes a very nice typewriter font, <TT>txtt</TT>.
Belleek was created by Richard Kinch&nbsp;[<A HREF="#CTANbelleek"><CITE>39</CITE></A><CITE>, </CITE><A HREF="#Belleek"><CITE>40</CITE></A>]
and is a drop-in replacement for the commercial fonts required by
the <TT>mathtime</TT> package (now part of PSNFSS&nbsp;[<A HREF="#CTANpsnfss"><CITE>30</CITE></A>]).
The LaTeX package <TT>mathptmx</TT> (also part of PSNFSS&nbsp;[<A HREF="#CTANpsnfss"><CITE>30</CITE></A>])
uses Times for Latin letters and Symbol for Greek and other symbols.
Michel Bovani created the <TT>mbtimes</TT> package by using Omega
Serif for text and Latin and Greek letters in mathematics. <TT>mbtimes</TT>
also includes symbol fonts and a set of calligraphic letters. Omega
Serif is the primary font for Omega, a 16-bit extension of TeX
by John Plaice and Yannis Haralambous&nbsp;[<A HREF="#Omega"><CITE>43</CITE></A>].<BR>
<BR>
The STIX fonts project&nbsp;[<A HREF="#STIX"><CITE>41</CITE></A>] is a collaboration of several
academic publishers to create a set of Times-compatible fonts containing
every possible glyph needed for mathematical and technical publishing.
These fonts are still in development, with a scheduled release in
the middle of 2006.<BR>
<BR>
Note that Adobe Reader 7.0 replaces Times with Adobe Serif MM if Times
or the Ghostscript equivalent Nimbus Roman No. 9 L is not embedded
in the PDF file. Adobe Serif MM only has an oblique version, not a
real italics, and thus, the primary text and Latin letters in mathematics
will not match letters taken from additional fonts. This problem can
be avoided by embedding Times or the Ghostscript equivalent Nimbus
Roman No. 9 L into the PDF file. Also, I have heard (but not personally
verified) that the Windows version of Adobe Reader displays Times
New Roman when Times is not embedded. The upright versions of the
two typefaces are very similar, but the italics are noticeably different
(consider the <EM>z</EM>, for instance). <BLOCKQUOTE CLASS="figure">

Helvetica, Courier, and Zapf Chancery do not have matching math fonts.
Courier and Zapf Chancery are inappropriate for mathematics anyway,
but Helvetica is sometimes used for presentations and posters. The
free fonts MgOpenModerna&nbsp;[<A HREF="#MgOpenModerna"><CITE>44</CITE></A>] and FreeSans&nbsp;[<A HREF="#FreeSans"><CITE>45</CITE></A>]
would be natural choices for the Greek letters in a Helvetica mathematics
font.<BR>

Comic Sans is one of Microsoft's core web fonts that is freely available&nbsp;[<A HREF="#comicsans"><CITE>53</CITE></A>].
The <TT>comicsans</TT> package by Scott Pakin&nbsp;[<A HREF="#CTANcomicsans"><CITE>54</CITE></A>]
implements Comic Sans as both the primary text font and the Latin
and Greek letters in mathematics. Computer Modern is used for geometric
symbols that are not present in Comic Sans. Comic Sans is hard to

comments in a handwriting style.<BLOCKQUOTE CLASS="figure">

The only sans serif fonts with matching math fonts are CM Bright and
Arev Sans. Both work well for presentations. Computer Modern sans
serif, CM Bright, Arev Sans, Bera Sans, Kerkis Sans, Helvetica, and
Avant Garde all work well as sans serif fonts that accompany a primary
roman font. Computer Modern typewriter, <TT>txtt</TT> (from txfonts),
Luxi Mono&nbsp;[<A HREF="#CTANluximono"><CITE>61</CITE></A>], and Bera Mono all work well as typewriters
fonts.<BR>
<BR>
There are several other free fonts easily used in LaTeX, notably
the Bera fonts, Luxi Mono, and efont-serif&nbsp;[<A HREF="#efont-serif"><CITE>62</CITE></A>]. Malte
Rosenau converted the Bitstream Vera fonts into Type&nbsp;1 format, renaming
the fonts to Bera&nbsp;[<A HREF="#CTANbera"><CITE>47</CITE></A>]. Bera includes serif, sans, and
mono. Bera Serif does not have a matching italic font, but the DejaVu
fonts&nbsp;[<A HREF="#dejavu"><CITE>60</CITE></A>] are an extension of Bitstream Vera that include
a true serif italic, as well as Greek and Cyrillic for all three styles.
Except for Bera Sans and Arev Sans, none of the previous fonts have
matching math fonts.<BR>

<!--TOC section Creation of this Survey-->

<H2 CLASS="section"><A NAME="htoc6">6</A>&nbsp;&nbsp;<A NAME="sec:Creation"></A>Creation of this Survey</H2><!--SEC END -->

It might be technically feasible to create a font survey such as this
article as a single TeX document. This document, however, was not
created in that fashion for two reasons. First, it would be an inordinate
amount of work to switch between fonts within the same document. The
authors of the LaTeX packages put in a considerable amount of effort
to set up the fonts for a document, and it would be silly to duplicate
their work. Second, we want to show to a reader exactly what he or
she will get by using that package.<BR>
<BR>
In order to accomplish these goals, a small LaTeX file (see Figure&nbsp;<A HREF="#cap:SampleLaTeXfile">25</A>
for an example) was made for each font that loaded the appropriate
packages and then loaded a common text fragment for display. Each
file was LaTeXed and then converted to an EPS file using <TT>dvips</TT>
with the -E option. The -E option creates a tight bounding box around
the text. The main file <TT>survey.tex</TT> then included each of
these graphics, and was compiled with <TT>pdflatex</TT>. For some
reason, <TT>dvips</TT> created an unusable one-page PS file when including
<TT>mbtimes.eps</TT>. HeVeA was used to convert <TT>survey.tex</TT>
directly to HTML.<BLOCKQUOTE CLASS="figure">

fine. The free PDF viewers Ghostview and xpdf have always displayed
bitmap fonts accurately.
<DT CLASS="dt-list"><A NAME="note4" HREF="#text4"><FONT SIZE=5>4</FONT></A><DD CLASS="dd-list">When on screen, the fonts are usually anti-aliased, often into a gray
blur because the stems are not thick enough to fill a pixel. When
printed with a high-resolution laser printer, the fonts are shown
accurately, but I think are too thin. With a medium-resolution printer
like an inkjet, there's enough resolution to show the form of the
letters (unlike on screen), but the low-resolution "bulks
up" the letters compared to a high-resolution laser printer,
with the letters thus appearing darker.
