Very slow slide transitions in PowerPoint 2004

I'm having a problem with slide transitions in Powerpoint 2004. I had
originally made a presentation in PowerPoint V.X. It works fine there,
both on a PM G5, dual 2.0(RevA) running OX 10.3.9, and on an iBook G3
(700) with 256 MB Ram, running 10.3.9. When I put both OSX.4 on the
iBook, along with Office 2004, the slide show did not run well, taking
a long time from when I hit the space key to advance a slide until the
next slide actually showed up on the screen. This occurs with slides
that have pictures (either JPEGs from Canvas, or graphs from Excel),
though transitions with text slides are OK. I thought this was a
problem either with Tiger, or the fact the iBook was relatively slow
and low on memory, but I am seeing the same problem on the G5. Is there
any fix for this? Is this a known issue?

TIA

I think I've found out what the problem was. It appears Powerpoint 2004
doesn't like pasted images in the slides. Things seem to work much
better if I save the images as pdf files and insert them into the
presentation that way.
