There might be a way if you can first export your PDF document into html format, then import the document with word (or even better, frontpage)

oops, what I said before, but in reverse.
Export your ppt file into html, then you can import to adobe.
The reasoning behind this is that pure html is the only medium that both programs use which supports hyperlinks.

I'm not sure what version of power point you're using, but 2003 (possible 2002) and later saves with a bunch of active x controls which causes adobe errors.
try saving to the earliest version of html the software allows (like export to netscape 3.0 browsers)
this should create a subdirectory called (your filename_files) in there you can find the html file for each slide. those are the one's you want to import. it works with powerpoint 07 and adobe 7.0, but I think it should work with older versions also.

I still think that powerpoint can export to older versions of html code.
The secret is to export your ppt file into the oldest version (most universal version) of HTML that you can find. For example, when I export to regular HTML, power point tries to use active X, JAVA and CSS. When I export to html for netscape 3.0, the code is rewritten to omit that code and is written in pure HTML. (Functions are replaced by <Table> tags and so on...) normally, this degrades the functionality of the website, but who cares, we're interested in preserving the links for Importing to Acrobat. Again, the trick is to export the file into the simplist HTML code possible.

I just found an online tool that converts HTML to PDF for you, haven't tried it, but this could work for you. (you may have to do the email option)
