document object is not javascript built-in object - it's provided by
the browser. In order for the scripts to be able to work without
modifications you should create object document with public method
write. From there you can do whatever you want with the output.

For example, 
if(typeof(document) == 'undefined'){
   document = new Object;
   document.write=function(s){ print(s); }
}
or something like this before any script that uses document.write may
solve the problem
