Newton Font

Download the Newton symbols font for use with the Chymistry of Isaac Newton website. Save the ZIP file to your machine, uncompress it, then copy the .OTF file to the Fonts folder. You don't need to do anything else to use the Newton font with the website.

The font will appear in your font selection lists as Newton and can be used in word processing programs.

Most of the characters in the Newton font reside in the private use area, E000-EFFF, with some symbols residing in the Miscellaneous Symbols area, 2600-26FF.

Please note that the Newton font is being revised as the project progresses. We will post new versions here, especially if our proposal to establish a block of alchemical symbols in Unicode is successful.
