Hmmm.  I just tried it with the lynx-dev page:

   Linkname: Lynx-Dev Discussion List
        URL: http://www.crl.com/~subir/lynx/lynx_help/lynx-dev.html

The only difference is that the version (p)rinted from the source view
lacks blank lines present in the (d)ownloaded version.  I suppose this
can be configured out, but the lesson is at least that there may be
differences unless you know precisely what options to select.
