How can I get my PC office documents onto my new ipad mini

Question

How can I get my microsoft office documents off my PC and onto my new Ipad mini?

Answer 1

You will have to install an app to your ipad that can open them. Then you can either use file sharing in itunes to transfere those files to your ipad. Or you can install icloud control panel on your pc, purchase apple's iwork applications, and save the files to icloud.
iTunes file sharing:
Transfer files between your computer and mobile apps
If you have an iPod touch or iPhone with iOS 4 or later, or an iPad, you can use iTunes to transfer files between your computer and an app on your device that supports file sharing.
You might want to do this if, for example, you want to save files you create on your device to your computer, or take files with you so you can use them when you’re away from your computer.
You don’t need to sync your device to transfer files, but your device needs to be connected to your computer.
For information about supported apps, see the documentation for your apps.

The file is transferred to your device, and can be opened in the app you selected in step 3.
