I'm using MathTimePro2 as my math fonts in my documents, so how can I replace curly braces such as \lbrace, \rbrace, \underbrace, \{, \} etc provided by MTP2 to ones given by YandY MathTime?

Thanks.

Since you appear to have the MathTime Professional II package, I'm not sure what precisely you mean by accessing the (older) YandY MathTime curly braces. Would you want to use both the mtpro2 package and Y&Y's fonts simultaneously?

Note that the instructions \lbrace, \rbrace, and \underbrace you mention in your posting do not generate the special curly (curvy?) braces provided by the mtpro2 package. To access the curvy constructs, you need to use the commands \lcbrace, \rcbrace, and \undercbrace, possibly in connection with a \LEFTRIGHT directive.

  • I want to use mtpro2, but I dont's like braces give by mtpro2(no matter lbrace or lcbrace...), I just want my equations generated by mtpro2 except those braces, I hope these braces could be locally invoked from YandY mathtime like this answer, as you can see, this is what I need. – PHoward Oct 18 '13 at 03:13
  • So what I really need is importing some Symbols from YandY times while usepackage mtpro2, figures from Mico have given above or this is not the one what I need. – PHoward Oct 18 '13 at 03:24
  • @PHoward - I've removed the example code and image since you've clarified you're looking for a different solution. Please provide more information about the YandY MathTime package? I was under the impression that Y&Y had ceased operations years ago and that the mathtime fonts they were distributing weren't owned by Y&Y but only licensed to them. I have no idea who owns those fonts and/or how they may be distributed these days. – Mico Oct 18 '13 at 05:29
