I've been asked to write code that will dynamically generate Microsoft
Powerpoint presentations.  It has to assemble collections of pages, and
possibly substitute a word or phrase here and there (mailmerge style).

There doesn't seem to be a published document describing Powerpoint file
format or capabilities.  The only generation tool I can find is a
sourceforge.net project that has no files.  The only conversion tools I
can find convert FROM powerpoint, not TO it.

Heck, I run FreeBSD at home so I can't actually VIEW ppt files.

Any advice?  Do I tell the customer that it's Flash or PDF or find
another developer?  I'd *much* rather do this in pdflib or ming, but
that may just not be possible....
