Although the TeX Live/MiKTeX package corresponding to the NewTX fonts is called newtx, this is of no consequence on how you have to load the LaTeX package. The unfortunate circumstance that we use the term ‘package’ with two different meanings sometimes leads to confusion.
Additionally,
newtx – Alternative uses of the TX fonts, with improved metrics. The bundle splits txfonts.sty (from the TX fonts distribution) into two independent packages, newtxtext.sty and newtxmath.sty, each with fixes and enhancements.
Furthermore, The correct call is \usepackage{newtxtext} \usepackage{newtxmath} Better doing separate calls, because the latter package accepts options that are not valid for the former. However, if you need no special option for the latter package, you can also do
And,
The American Mathematical Society has created some packages for mathematical typesetting in LaTeX. The amsmath package extends the default math related capabilities of LaTeX. The amssymb adds additional symbols and fonts for formulas.
Keeping this in consideration,
With Overleaf you get the same LaTeX set-up wherever you go. By working with your colleagues and students on Overleaf, you know that you're not going to hit any version inconsistencies or package conflicts. We support almost all LaTeX features, including inserting images, bibliographies, equations, and much more!
