1 When saving as rich text, there are two options: #6 or #106. The difference between the two is that #6 converts text only, along with the formatting. What that means is if your PowerPoint slide contains text that is embedded in a graphic, that text will not be extricated from the graphic for conversion and the entire graphic will be ignored. Using #106 to save in rich text format will save the entire slide as an image that will display in MS Word.
2 Note that Advanced PDF options cannot be set from the command line (e.g. Page and Document Settings, Paragraph Formatting, Font, etc.). They must be set in the user interface prior to using the command line.
