Strictly speaking, it isn't that the documents aren't being displayed in a manner that VO can interpret. Rather, its that documents are being send to VO in one great chunk rather than as individual lines of text that can be swiped through. 
I have a contact handling beta-testing so will apprise her of the problem.
