Summary description: A modern interface for the Euler math fonts
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package provides the `eulerpx' font, which
started as a hybrid of multiple other font packages,
notably eulervm and newpxmath. Its purpose is twofold:
(1) To use the eulervm symbols for greek and latin,
but the newpxmath font for braces and brackets,
and the text font for digits and operators;
(2) To make it easy to change between a sans and
serif font for the digits and operators, so
that the font can be used seamlessly in
documents using both.
This package was put together with the intent to use
it with the Palatino and Optima fonts (newpxtext and
classico), but may work with other combinations too.
To use the package, add this to your preamble:
\usepackage{eulerpx}
You may use the \sfmath and \rmmath macros to switch
between serif and sans fonts for the digits and
operators. For instance, if you use a KOMA-Script
class, you can put the following in your preamble
to switch all footnotes to a sans font:
\addtokomafont{footnote}{\sffamily\sfmath}
Note that in contrast to the eulervm package, bold
math characters are accessed through the \mathbf
macro. If the option `utf8' is provided, the package
will also declare the Greek unicode range; i.e., if
the package is included with
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{eulerpx}
then you may write your equations in the form
$α+β$ instead of $\alpha+\beta$.
