newpx
package.
Summary description: Update of pxfonts, with revised metrics and options.

This package can replace pxfonts in much the same way that newtx can replace txfonts. The math package is drawn mostly from pxfonts glyphs but with more relaxed metrics.
This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/newpx . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/newpx (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 . Please join a users group; see http://www.tug.org/usergroups.html .
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf

newpx – Alternative uses of the PX fonts, with improved metrics
This package, initially based on pxfonts, provides many fixes and enhancements to that package, and splits it in two parts (newpxtext and newpxmath) which may be run independently of one another. It provides scaling, improved metrics, and other options.
For proper operation, the packages require that the packages newtxmath, pxfonts, and TeXGyrePagella be installed and their map files enabled.
