    There's quite a few ways. Do you want to do this manually, or do you want an automated server side process?

    For manual conversion, an easy and free way is to print the ppt to pdf, and then use pdf2swf ( http://www.swftools.org) to convert the pdf to swf. You can also use openOffice, but I've found the .swf's it generates to be a little wonky.

    If you don't mind converting your ppt slides to bitmaps, I've found dreamingsoft's ppt2swf to be very good. http://www.dreamingsoft.com (they have an API version if you need it to run as a server side process).
