Braces arround an image?

Post by roja »

Hi,
Does anyone know if there is a better way of putting braces arround an image than:

$ something \left\lbrace \includegraphics[scale=.3]{image.eps} \right\rbrace $

as the above produces an unusual output by placing the image in the top half of the braces i.e. producing braces twice the height of the image in question.

Regards
Roja

Try the \psbrace command from the pstricks-add package. More information can be found in section 5 of the documentation.
