C# / Windows Forms - Display a PowerPoint slide-show without Office installed?

I know I can display a Powerpoint presentation within my own form (see here), but I'm wondering whether there is a way to get rid of Microsoft Office as a requirement?

I guess basically what I'm asking for is a library which will display Powerpoint slide-shows without my users having to install MS Office on every machine. They do not need to CREATE slide-shows, just display them. Does such a l开发者_JAVA百科ibrary exist? I have searched all over the place and I'm always referred back to the MS Interop / ActiveX stuff.

Any help is appreciated!

Try this: PowerPoint Viewer 2007. Also see this thread about embedding a Powerpoint Viewer 2007 instance on a VB.NET form

I believe you can accomplish this with Aspose.Slides. It can open up an PPT file you have, then I think you could save each sheet to a image. Finally, you could show the images in your app.
