In case the requirement to use Powerpoint is relaxed you could generate a
set of "slides" that are html -- as Kurt Cagle did once:

See also his technique adapted for client-side presentations:

The source.xml is transformed to html using the old MS dialect of XSL
Patterns. It should be easy to do the same with xslt.
