This is pretty rough but it might do what you want it to do, but it
could be a lot better:
for I in *.{html,pdf,odt,doc,docx}; do kde-open5 $I; done
Just add whatever document types to the part in the {}s and it will open
all the documents in the current directory.
There's no limit to the number of document so be careful that your
directory doesn't contain more than a few documents.

Long ago, I found a shell script (see below) named "v"
that allows me to do this from the command line.
I go into any directory (folder) and type: v *jpg <E>
to scan through all .jpgs in that directory.
Is there a way to do something similar to scroll or scan
through a directory and view the contents of documents
such as libre office .odt files?
Here's the "v" script:
# v open named image
cls;ls -ltr | tail -10;echo
if [ $# -gt 0 ]; then FILE=$1; else echo "Open what file? "
read file; FILE=$file; fi
nohup gwenview $FILE >/dev/null 2>&1 &
exit
