Alternative to Times New Roman

Times New Roman is the de-facto standard serif typeface for serious types of documents, including newspaper, business communication, reports and essays. Its popularity may be due to the fact that Times New Roman is included in every release of the Windows operating system, which is the dominant OS for PC's. Times New Roman is so widely used that it has become somewhat boring. So you may want to use a different typeface to give your document a refreshing look and feel. Below are some typefaces that you can try and use in your document instead of Times New Roman.

1. Times LT
   

   Times LT is Linotype's version of Times family fonts. Personally, I believe that Linotype's Times Roman is aesthetically superior to Monotype's Times New Roman.

   • Times LT Roman (lte51254.ttf)
   • Times LT Italic (lte51255.ttf)
   • Times LT Semibold (lte50867.ttf)
   • Times LT Semibold Italic (lte50868.ttf)
   • Times LT Bold (lte51256.ttf)
   • Times LT Bold Italic (lte51257.ttf)
   • Times LT Extra Bold
2. Dutch 801 BT
   

   Dutch 801 is a fine serif font family from Bitstream. Along with other Dutch releases, such as Dutch 766, Dutch 809, Dutch 811 and Dutch 823, it is a good substitute for Times New Roman.

   

   It's easy to download Dutch 801 fonts if you know how to google using the font filenames (tt0011m_.ttf, tt0012m_.ttf, tt0013m_.ttf, tt0014m_.ttf, tt0549m_.ttf, tt0834m_.ttf, tt0835m_.ttf, tt0971m_.ttf, tt1035m_.ttf, tt1036m_.ttf).

3. URW++ Nimbus Roman
   

   Nimbus Roman No. 9L is a serif font released by URW++ for free personal and commercial use. It is metrically compatible with Times New Roman. The TrueType edition of Nimbus Roman is available in this package (urwfonts-1.41.tar.bz2).

4. TeX Gyre Termes
   

   Termes is based on URW++ Nimbus Roman No. 9L and contains international scripts. It is completely free and available here.

5. Liberation Serif
   

   Liberation fonts are metrically compatible with Monotype's Times New Roman, but have little similarity to Times New Roman. However, it's free.
