Importing a Word doc into Powerpoint

How do I import a Word doc into Powerpoint so that it will appear exactly as
it does in Word, i.e., each line not broken into a separate slide. Create a
PDF of the Word doc?

The short answer is that you can't. The two applications have wildly
different file formats. The best you are likely to achieve is to (in Word
2003) File >Send To > Powerpoint or (in Word 2007) add the Send To
Powerpoint command from the All Commands Group to the QAT or run the
following macro

Sub PPoint()
ActiveDocument.PresentIt
End Sub

but don't expect it to look like the original Word document as it
undoubtedly won't.

You can insert a one page Word Document as an object into PowerPoint but it
won't be editable in Powerpoint.
