Try libreoffice --headless --convert-to png *.pptx Sorry, ignore this. This will only convert the first slide of each pptx.
You could batch convert to pdf with libreoffice --headless --convert-to pdf *.pptx and use unoconv of ImageMagick convert like Myles said. Bob, I think this extension may be what you are looking for: http://www.monperrus.net/martin/export+animations+to+pdf+in+libreoffice-open... Hopefully it works and you are able to find a way to automate it for multiple files.

Hi: I've got a bunch of .pptx (Microsoft PowerPoint) files that I'd like to convert to individual .png files for each slide, preferably where each step in a transition becomes its own .png file.
You can use unoconv[0] (a universal office converter that works with anything that LibreOffice or OpenOffice support) to convert them to a pdf file. Then use ImageMagick[1] to convert them to png files.
Here is a quick script (that probably doesn't work so don't blame me if it fails) on how I would start doing it: <https://gist.github.com/myles/3656ebcb3026b455d1b3be52d5bd3a58>.
Hope this helps.
