It's generally not a good idea, to use any Microsoft Office document in applications, because Office is too much proprietary and closed-source. There are many alternatives.

Try this CodeProject article: Embedding PowerPoint presentation player into a WPF application[^].

But please see my comment to the question. Presentations like PPT is an easy task for WPF itself, so using PPT and falling into the dependency on this proprietary product may not worth the effort.
