The best solution is to "print" each page of the document to a graphic file.
This is very easy with a product such as SnagIt by TechSmith. On my
computer, I simply choose the SnagIt Printer and it saves each page of the
document out as a PNG file which can be inserted into a presentation.
I have seen others use the Microsoft Office Document Image Writer to do
this, but it involves more steps. You could also save each of the pages as
a PDF, then convert from PDF to image format. Again, more steps, same
result.
If you just insert the document into PowerPoint you will get a Word object
that will need to be activated in order to view subsequent pages. For one
page per slide, image files are the route I would go.
