The only thing I can think of to do:
1) Have a Dropbox account
2) Put documents into the Public folder
3) Copy the public link (via your Dropbox folder on the PC...right click on the file > Dropbox > "copy public link")
4) Paste the link into Safari (I use an app called LazyText, but you can always just type the public link into Safari's URL box...)
5) Look at the document on Safari and then "Add to Home Screen" (via Safari)
This has worked for Excel, Word and PowerPoint files - and pictures (jpg and animated gifs) and PDFs.
The really cool thing is that once you [re]open the file from your homescreen, you can either view it right there in Safari, or open it in a compatible app.
Note that in the Safari view, you can only look at the file/document. But, if you open it in a compatible app, you can edit it (and I assume save it, though I didn't try that part out).

P.S. And thanks for asking the question. I didn't know this could be done until I tried it.
