I think you are right about the emf representation of the embedded PPT:

word\embeddings\Microsoft_PowerPoint_Slide111.sldx corresonds to 
media\image4.emf

there are 17 files in the embeddings folder and there are 17 .emf files in the 
media folder. So it looks like every embedded file has a corresponding .emf file

So your solution might work once the .emf files get converted to .svg I assume?

Yes, that's right.

     Please send us a sample document having embedded PPT slides.

     MS-Word very often automatically creates alternate representations of
     the same graphic. For example, your DOCX files could contain a PPT slide
     and as an alternate format, the corresponding EMF graphic.

     If this is the case, once we'll support the EMF format[*], your authors
     will not have to change their habits.

     MathML but does not support EMF yet. EMF support is indeed at the top of
     our TODO list.
