I am required to use a .cls that loads the newtxmath package with the libertine option. Because of this (I think), when I type \mathcal{A} my "A" looks different than it normally does. I need to typeset a single normal, non-libertine, old-school \mathcal{A}. A once-off, inline solution that works in a math environment would be ideal. Thanks!

The original
\mathcal
alphabet is from thecmsy
font. You can switch to that inside a\text
command fromamsmath
.You could also declare
\varcal
with\DeclareMathAlphabet
, which would have the advantage of working with\boldmath
. However, you say you don’t need this, and there is a limit on how many math alphabets legacy 8-bit TeX can use.If you only need two different script alphabets, you could load one as
\mathcal
and the other as\mathscr
usingmathalpha
.
