I have actually done that works fine.
The only thing I noted:  i.e. I have problems opening i.e. French Version PP 
slides with StarOffice. If you upgrade to the latest StarOffice 6 (Beta or so)
this works fine.

I only use it on Linux. Good luck.

p.s. if all fails: print into PS (i.e. Apple-LaswerWriter)
and then use ImageMagick's convert to convert it into 1-jpg per page.
