Just be sure to download the correct binary for your version of Windows. Then unzip the file somewhere and add "curl.exe" to your PATH. It should then just work from the command line like the examples. If you need more curl help, you might need to ask elsewhere.
With curl you can upload simple .xml files to solr ... See http://wiki.apache.org/solr/UpdateXmlMessages . For other xml formats or different file types (you had mentioned .pdf and .doc), see the instructions at http://wiki.apache.org/solr/ExtractingRequestHandler . Keep in mind that for a lot of uses, curl is a good solution only for rapid development but other solutions (DIH or SolrJ) will be better for the long haul.
