1 MB ppt

command line:

unoconv -d document -f pdf document.ppt

Issue description: I have downloaded files from above, and ran command as mentioned, result is command runs already for over 30min, there's no output, however once prcocess got killed, the result file appears (but not always), and it's over 3000 pages pdf with unknown characters on each page.

I get this with libreoffice TestFiles/file_example_PPT_250kB.ppt --convert-to pdf , which means this isn't an Unoconv issue, it's a Libreoffice issue.
