Regarding the document, I would suggest you to try converting Word documents to HTML content in C# and then just display that HTML in your form.
Regarding the PDF, I'm not sure if this will suite your needs but how about just using an "iframe" element in your HTML that has a source pointing to your PDF file?

we can not load word document in Aspx page, there is no control/viewer exist for that. you can use IFrame control but before that you need to convert word file to HTML and then you can show it.
see below links, for PDF viewer controls
