The files you have downloaded contain additional information 
not included with the article.
==========================================================
The "Patterns" folder contains double-size HP PCL (Printer 
Control Language) files of the circuit-board etching patterns. 
They can be printed by copying the files to a compatible 
printer, such as a Laserjet 4 series. To print the files in 
Windows, open an MS-DOS window, navigate to the folder 
containing the files, and copy each file to "prn." Like this:

copy /b AD_B.pcl prn

Filename      Description
AD_B.pcl      A to D converter board bottom pattern
AD_T.pcl      A to D converter board top pattern
Control_B.pcl Control board bottom pattern
Control_T.pcl Control board top pattern
LA_B.pcl      Logic Analyzer board bottom pattern
LA_T.pcl      Logic Analyzer board top pattern
PLD_B.pcl     Programmable Logic Device board bottom pattern
PLD_T.pcl     Programmable Logic Device board top pattern

After printing, reduce the patterns by 50% on a photocopy 
machine. For those who don't have Laserjet-compatible
printers, the PDF files should print properly on 
most printers.

==========================================================
The Pictures folder contains color versions of the photos 
and screen captures from the article.

==========================================================
PLD Connections.PDF contains additional information about 
design of the PLD board.
