-- Convert presentations to image files --

I'm looking either for a command line utility (Red Hat) or Java API to
convert a Power Point and Open Office slides to image files, a file per slide.

I don't know of a command-line app, but BlackIce has a set of print drivers to do this sort of thing.  I assume you're looking to do this in an automated way- which you could do thorugh powerpoint's automation interface.  If not, you could use WebEx do this manually.

You might try open office. It allows exporting powerpoint presentations to many formats like pdf, html, flash, png, etc and comes with a very powerful api.

I need to convert presentations automatically, not manually.

Evgeny...did you even look at those apps I linked to? I'm certain the first one allows batching as I've used it. I'm pretty sure the second one does too. It doesn't get much more "automatic" than batch converting.

I'd remind you too of the nod to OpenOffice's API but you might actually have to write three or four lines of code......
