OK; that's what I expected.

1. So it shouldn't look "exactly the same as the printed version"?

2. I can think of no earthly reason that papers in the Digital
   Library should be forced to maintain lockstep consistency. It's not like
   anyone downloads the entire SOSP from the DL and prints it all out.
   People download one paper at a time, usually based on a search.

I will provide you with the PDF file you requested, including thumbnails.
We will continue to use our Helveticae.
