So, the macro is \newcommand{\ddim}[3]{\ensuremath{\underset{\scriptscriptstyle #2\times #3}{\rule[-1ex]{0ex}{+1ex}#1}}} And you use it e.g. like `\ddim {A}NN` to indicate that A is NxN, or `Ax \ddim {=}N1 b` to show that this is an Nx1 equation. I suppose one could fine-tune it, but it was good enough for me.
