So you're not fortunate enough to work on a UNIX system equipped with
Display PostScript? On such systems, EPS files don't need a preview.
Many SUN, IBM and SGI boxes have DPS.

I think the route PPT > PDF > Acrobat > EPS is the best way. There
should be no problem displaying the TIFF preview that Acrobat creates.

Avoid bitmap image formats like TIFF, JPEG, GIF, PNG and BMP.

You might find some more useful information on my web pages:
