Splitting a file

I want to split a powerpoint file, so that there is 1 file per slide. I want to do this for several files

Also I want to then take some of these files and create a new presentation

Can I do this?

Sure, you can. All these things can be done through creating empty presentation and cloning slides.
This short example will save all slides as separate ppt files:

for (int i = 1; i <= srcPres.Slides.LastSlidePosition; i++)
{
// Create new presentation and clone slide
Presentation newPres = new Presentation();
srcPres.CloneSlide(srcPres.GetSlideByPosition(i), 2, newPres, new SortedList());
// Delete first empty slide
newPres.Slides.Remove(newPres.GetSlideByPosition(1));
// Save created presentation with one slide to a new file
newPres.Write(“slide” + i + “.ppt”);
}

The above code written by Alexey is in C#, below is the equivalent code in Java.

JAVA

//Read the source presentation
Presentation srcPres = new Presentation(new FileInputStream("c:\\source.ppt"));

int lastSlidePosition = srcPres.getSlides().getLastSlidePosition();
for (int i = 1; i <= lastSlidePosition; i++) {
    // Create new presentation and clone slide
    Presentation newPres = new Presentation();

    //Make slide size equal in both presentation
    newPres.setSlideSize(srcPres.getSlideSize());

    // Clone the slide from source into new presentation
    Slide srcSld = srcPres.getSlideByPosition(i);
    srcPres.cloneSlide(srcSld, 2, newPres, new TreeMap());

    // Delete first empty slide
    newPres.getSlides().remove(newPres.getSlideByPosition(1));

    // Save created presentation with one slide to a new file
    newPres.write(new FileOutputStream("c:\\slide" + i + ".ppt"));
}
