I know that you're going to need some code before you ask a 'coding' question here. I think google may have the answer you are looking for. — pokeybit, Jun 16 '18 at 13:01
My question is not about the coding, it's about mechanism or methodology and i did not write single line of code until i am clear about the things. — Jake, Jun 16 '18 at 13:33

Another option is if you can get the pdf, ppt or image onto an HTML Canvas then you can stream a Canvas into an OpenTok Session. https://github.com/opentok/opentok-web-samples/tree/master/Publish-Canvas

This is easy to do with an image, you can use the drawImage() method.

It looks like it's also possible to do with a PDF with pdf.js: How to load Pdf file on Canvas as a image.src?

You can use screensharing:

It allows you to share a whole screen, or just an application window.
