This package, based initially on pxfonts, provides many fixes and enhancements to that package, splitting it in two parts---newpxtext and newpxmath---which may be run independently of one another. It provides scaling, improved metrics, and other options. For proper operation, the packages require that the packages newtxmath, pxfonts and TeXGyrePagella be installed and their map files enabled. The text package now relies on an extension of the TeXGyrePagella Type1 fonts that is provided with this package. The accompanying MANIFEST-newpx.txt provides details of the extension as requested by GUST-FONT-LICENSE.txt

+Changes in version 1.40
+1. Changed name of file newpx.subs to newpx-subs.tex.
+2. Placed the \pdfglyphtounicode lines in a conditional block in newpxmath.sty so it could continue to be used with other engines. (Thanks Hironobu Yamashita.)
+
+Changes in version 1.40
+1. Reworked the math italics to improve the rendering of some subscripts and superscripts, where formerly, overlaps could occur with superscripts like j, f, p and y with base shapes, such as D, that are round on the right. Increasing the left side-bearing of j, etc, helps with superscripts but makes those letters leave a large gap when used as subscripts.
+2. Corrected and enhanced the subscriptcorrection option to newpxmath so that it now fixes the above problem. I regret that this option is incompatible with xy-pic, both depending on making _ an active character but with very different behaviors. Newpxmath will detect if xy is loaded and disable subscriptcorrection if so.
+3. Added new script alphabets to math italics by extending the encoding from oml to full 256 slots, so they can be used without wasting math families.
+4. Rearranged npxmia and zplsy. The user should not notice this, unless I have erred somewhere.
+5. Provided an adaptive vector accent which matches the normal vector accent but extends as needed over its accentee. I've followed the usage of the esvect package, but changed its implementation.
+6. Many small corrections to spacing and accent positioning.
+7. Revised the superior letters fonts so they have appropriate unicode values.
+8. As a result of these changes, documents generated using newpxmath and appropriate settings will validate PDF/A-1b. (Thanks to Ross Moore for providing the necessary files and details on this.) See the updated documentation to newpx for details.
+9. Fixed error in lmxnpxexx.fd re fontdimens. (Thanks Ruixi Zhang.)
+10. Added option fracspacing that modifies fontdimens 8 and 11 of the symbol font to values more appropriate to the newpx fonts. (Thanks Ruixi Zhang.)
+11. Corrected AMS replacement font npxsym to fix \dalath, \mathbb{k}, \circledR and \circledS.
