			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>To get the cover&nbsp; background image, I had to do this.</p><p>1) Find a black on white circuit diagram, and crop a portion with sufficient quality in the lines to invert. This was my initial problem, as I couldn&#039;t find a nice complex circuit diagram with heavy enough lines,&nbsp; as I was copying from one of those image browsing fields&nbsp; you get in a search result.</p><p>2) process the image in photolab (out of PPX9) from B/W to get blue lines on a white background</p><p>3) Process the image by inversion to get yellow lines lines on black and then on to white lines on blue.</p><p>4) For this image, rotate and crop irregularly to fit image to A4 page.</p><p>The original, back in the day, was implemented by the company print room.</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>I&#039;ve had another go, and this is closer to the general effect of my cover.

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Just for fun, I&#039;ve recreated something like the original cover<br /><a href="https://postimg.cc/N29JhsLc"><span class="postimg"><img src="https://i.postimg.cc/N29JhsLc/image-2022-04-15-115818107.png" alt="https://i.postimg.cc/N29JhsLc/image-2022-04-15-115818107.png" /></span></a><br />The cover was background darkish blue, and the circuit was, as I remember, white fine lines, subdued.</p><p>I have been trying to reproduce the exact effect, but I can&#039;t see how to get a thin clean white line diagram on top of a blue background field. One problem is that I can&#039;t find a digital circuit diagram with the sort of components available back in the day. I&#039;ve searched for digital schematic diagrams in my browser, and there are many different sorts of diagrams there. But not quite with the number of small IC&#039;s used then, in the absence of complex computer and other multifunctional chips. So the diagrams are of low resolution and don&#039;t lend themselves to much processing.</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>From whence cometh the blackboard background maths?</p><p>It reminds me of about 1971 when I was offered the opportunity to design the cover of a report, study or somesuch, on a digital satellite.</p><p>I thought it would be a good idea to make the background a portion of a digital circuit. But, could I find a schematic to suit that wasn&#039;t classified? It was difficult, but I got there in the end.</p>]]></content>
