This package, initially 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.

\begin{oldthm}
This is Theorem Italic: text numbers are upright---12345; punctuation is in many cases upright (also, parens, braces \{\} and brackets []). What about question marks and exclamations? Also upright! [These fit better with math mode punctuation and figures, like: for all $x\in[0,1]$, let $f(x)\coloneq \exp(\alpha x)$].
\end{oldthm}
+\section{Spacing issues}
+This new version of {\tt newtxtext} has spacing that is a little different, in its default state, from that of the old {\tt newtxtext}. In small part this is due to the finer kerning of TeXGyre Termes, but mostly because the three parameters that govern inter-word spacing are not the same.
+\begin{verbatim}
+ txfonts Termes
+fontdimen2 (interword space) .25em .25em
+fontdimen3 (interword stretch) .15em .2em
+fontdimen4 (interword shrink) .06em .1em
+\end{verbatim}
+That is, {\tt Termes} has the same normal spacing as {\tt txfonts} but its spacing is more flexible in terms of both stretch and shrink. More frequently than not, a paragraph built with {\tt Termes} will occupy more space than the same built with {\tt txfonts}. For this reason, the package offers some ways to change the spacing parameters. This may be important if you are trying to imitate the pagination of a document built using~{\tt txfonts}.
+
+Option {\tt tighter} sets the three fontdimen values to those of {\tt txfonts}.
+
+Option {\tt looser} sets the three fontdimen values to \verb|{.3em,.2em,.1em}| respectively.
+
+If you want full control, the options {\tt spacing, stretch, shrink} allow you to modify one or more of the above fontdimens. For example,
+\begin{verbatim}
+\usepackage[stretch=.15em,shrink=.095em]{newtxtext}
+\end{verbatim}
