 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.

+Changes in version 1.54
+Added option noxchvw (or, equivalently, noXchvw) to newtxmath. This affects only math usage with XCharter, supressing the default math italic v and w and in favor of the Charter italic glyphs. (This may lead to problems distinguishing math italic v from Greek math \nu.)

 Changes in version 1.531
 1. Corrected some errors in newtx.map. (Thanks to Michael Schindler.)
 2. Modified the tfm heights of upright regular and bold ot1-encoded text fonts so that accents would be placed according to visual rather than actual heights for lower case letters with rounded tops, such as a, c, e, etc. (Thanks to Russ Lyons.)
