SUMMARY

The integral font discussed is identified as resembling Times New Roman, with suggestions for achieving a similar style in LaTeX. Users recommend the \usepackage{pslatex} for Times font usage, but note it does not provide the desired integral sign. Instead, the packages \usepackage[varg]{txfonts}, \usepackage{euler}, and \usepackage{eulervm} are highlighted as effective alternatives. The eulervm package is confirmed to work well for the user's needs.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with LaTeX typesetting
  • Understanding of font packages in LaTeX
  • Basic knowledge of mathematical notation in typesetting
  • Experience with installing and using .ttf fonts
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the \usepackage{eulervm} for enhanced integral signs in LaTeX
  • Explore the \usepackage[varg]{txfonts} for alternative font styles
  • Learn about installing and configuring LaTeX font packages
  • Investigate other LaTeX packages for mathematical typesetting
USEFUL FOR

LaTeX users, mathematicians, and anyone involved in typesetting mathematical documents who seeks to enhance their font selection and integral sign representation.

Hello!
Desperately looking for an answer to this. While it's not really a physics or maths question, I don't really know where else to ask, so I reasoned here was as good as anywhere - please excuse me if I'm asking in the wrong place.
Does anyone recognise the font used in this integral?

I'd like to download it and use it for myself, but I can't find it anywhere. Is there a .ttf (or equivalent) for it? (I'm not yet a proficient Latex user, so I'd struggle with getting fonts working though that.) I much prefer this style of integral sign to the slanted ones used in Computer Modern and Cambria Math.
Thanks.

Looks like Times New Roman

They used italics for the x's

That indeed looks like Times. Try \usepackage{pslatex}.

Actually, that will not give you the integral sign you want:

Here are some packages that may give you what you want:
\usepackage[varg]{txfonts}

\usepackage{euler}

\usepackage{eulervm}

\usepackage{pxfonts}

Thanks very much, magoo and DrClaude! The eulervm package works a treat!

Thanks!
