MathTime Professional 2 Fonts

Custom-Designed Math Fonts for use with Times Fonts

MathTime Professional 2 (MTPro2) fonts may be used in place of Computer Modern fonts (the standard TeX fonts) in any LaTeX or TeX document. Just add a line or two to your source document, and your math fonts will be replaced by MathTime Professional fonts. MTPro2 fonts were designed by Michael Spivak of Publish or Perish Inc.

The fonts are offered in two versions, Complete and Lite. Some features of both versions:

Provides custom-designed Times-compatible characters & symbols.
Has individually designed parentheses and other delimiters, as well as radical signs up to 4 inches high, and math accents up to 4 inches wide (example).
Fonts have three design sizes for text, sub/superscripts and second-order sub/super-superscripts. This feature is subtle but adds a lot to the finished result. Many math fonts use linear scaling to create smaller symbols for subscripts, which can result in poor appearance --- see this example.

Scaled

Note the alpha and k in the Designed example, which are
expanded and blend better with the larger symbols.

Has liberal licensing which allows the fonts to be used in documents without restrictions.
Comes with LaTeX macros designed by Walter Schmidt.
Will work with all TeX systems on Windows, Linux, and Mac. See Installation instructions.
