To enhance Gagravarr perfect answer:

• If your document is got from a WEB server => curl -u "http://myserver-domain/*path-to-doc*/doc-name.extension" | nc 127.0.0.1 12345
• And it is even better if the document is protected by password => curl -u login:*password* "http://myserver-domain/*path-to-doc*/doc-name.extension" | nc 127.0.0.1 12345
