Do you know what this format is ?

We think it might be compressed, possibly with a header.

Your best bet is to take your source TIFF file, and compress it as many ways as you can think of (gzip, bzip, gzip -9, gzip -1 etc) and see if you can see shared sections between the data in the PPT file and the compressed versions.

That might help us figure out what compression scheme (if any) is used, and what header (if any) there is on the start of the images

If we can translate a TIFF image to a png, would it suffice to replace it in the in-memory array of pictures and save the document ?

Possibly, it's worth a try. Try taking a PPT file with a TIFF image and a PNG image, then overwriting the data of the TIFF PictureData with the data of the PNG PictureData, setting the type on the PictureData to png, then saving the PPT file
