This package, based on txfonts, provides many fixes and enhancements to the txfonts package, splitting it into two separate packages---newtxtext and newtxmath, which may be run independently of one another. It provides scaling, improved metrics, and other options. In particular, newtxmath offers a libertine option which substitutes Linux Libertine (provided with TeXLive and MikTeX) italic and Greek letters for the default Times letters, providing a good match for the Libertine text font, which is heavier than Computer Modern but lighter than Times, and in my experience, looks very sharp and clear on the screen.

+Changes in version 1.04:
+1. Adds separate stripped down versions of the Libertine-Legacy fonts (just the parts used in math) so that it is not necessary to install the now obsolete Libertine-legacy package. (The package libertine.sty now points to libertine-type1, its replacement.)
+2. Adds a more distinctive nu, activated with the altnu option.
+3. The 7pt and 5pt versions of libertine math have been overhauled and are more spread out than former versions. Upright numberss have been added to the math fonts for better rendering in scriptstyle and scriptscriptstyle and more adjustable spacing.
+4. Because there are a great many changes in this version, the chance of error is rather high, but the basic functionality is there for the libertine option.
+5. IMPORTANT NOTE for TeX Live users: the name of the main map file for this package has been changed to newtx.map from ntx.map. Make sure that there is no copy of the latter in your texmf trees. If you write
+
+kpsewhich ntx.map
+
+and do not get a blank response, you should manually remove the file and update your lsR database.
Changes in version 1.03:
-1. Copied parentheses from Times and Libertine Roman txt fonts into ntxmia so that better spacing could applied in math mode. (The text glyphs are very narrow.)
+1. Copied parentheses from Times and Libertine Roman txt fonts into ntxmia so that better spacing could be applied in math mode. (The text glyphs are very narrow.)
2. Modified spacing in 7pt and 5pt Libertine math fonts to remove extraneous right side-bearings.
Changes in version 1.02:
1. Additions to newtxtext to provide better superior figures, principally used for footnote and endnote markers.
