On Tue, 1 Feb 2011 Jean-Francois Burnol submitted an update of the
mathastext
package to CTAN.
Summary description: Use the text font in simple mathematics License type: lppl
Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The mathastext package propagates the document text font to mathematical mode, for the letters of the Latin alphabet and, optionally, other characters in the font. Thus it makes possible (for a document with simple mathematics) to use a quite arbitrary text font without worrying too much that no specially designed accompanying maths fonts are available. The package also offers a simple mechanism for using many different choices of (text hence, now, math) font in the same document. Of course, using one font for two purposes helps produce smaller PDF files. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/mathastext/ . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/info/?id=mathastext (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Thanks for the upload.
