The following information was provided by the package's contributor.
Name of contribution: newtx Author's name: Michael Sharpe Package version: 0.93 Location on CTAN: fonts/newtx Summary description: New version of txfonts, with improved metrics and options. License type: lppl
Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
Splits txfonts.sty into two independent packages, newtxtext.sty and newtxmath.sty, each with fixes and enhancements. The latter offers a less tight appearance than the original, and is optimized for Libertine and Times. This version adds optical weights for math italic and symbol fonts in both Libertine and Times, and corrects a number of errors in the initial release.
thanks for the upload; i've installed the new version, and updated the catalogue repository.
Users may view the package catalogue entry at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/newtx.html or they may browse the package directory at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/fonts/newtx
The catalogue entry will change (somewhat) on the web, by tomorrow morning (Cambridge time).
