with swift 2.2
For showing PDF and DOC file I have use following code snip
//Document file url
var docUrl = NSURL(string: "https://www.google.co.in/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=0ahUKEwjjwPSnoKfNAhXFRo8KHf6ACGYQFggbMAA&
url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.snee.com%2Fxml%2Fxslt%2Fsample.doc&usg=AFQjCNGG4FxPqcT8RXiIRHcLTu0yYDErdQ&sig2=ejeAlBgIZG5B6W-tS1VrQA&bvm=bv.124272578,d.c2I&cad=rja")
let req = NSURLRequest(URL: docUrl!)
webView.delegate = self
//here is the sole part
webView.scalesPageToFit = true
webView.contentMode = .ScaleAspectFit
webView.loadRequest(req)
Note: make sure on backed side (for api) we have to define content-type as document in headers.
