MathTime[1] is a commercial set of Times compatible mathematical fonts for TeX, created by Michael Spivak.

MathTimes has been available in three variants:

  • MathTime 1.x: contains the Times compatible TeX math italic, math symbol and math extension font.
  • MathTime Plus: contains the Times compatible TeX math italic, math symbol and math extension font in bold and "heavy" (extra bold), used in addition to MathTime 1.x[2].
  • MathTime Professional 2: A redesigned, optical scaling version free of license restriction by Monotype, and includes (in addition to the variants from 1.x/Plus) the AMS symbols, upright script, blackboard bold and "holey Roman" (serifed blackboard bold) math fonts, and extra large operators[3].

MathTime 1.x and MathTime Plus has been sold by (the now defunct) Y&Y, while MathTime Professional 2 by PCTeX.

MathTime has been widely adpoted by academic publishers such as by Elsevier (e.g. Physics Letters B), American Physical Society (e.g. Physical Review C), and Springer.
