Can't insert jpg or pdf files as object in ppt (icon)

I'm trying to insert jpg or pdf files into a powerpoint. I recieved these files via email from PC users. The are saved on my Powerbook in jpg and pdf formats. When I try to insert them into a powerpoint presentation as objects (icon) I keep getting the following error message:

The server application, source file or item cannot be found, check that the path and file name are correct or try reinstalling the server application.

I get the same message when I try to open these files when sent to me embedded in a powerpoint. I can both insert and read word files in powerpoint, but not jpg and pdf. Any suggestions? I need to be able to do this for may job so any help is much appreciated. Didn't know what forum to put this in so hope it belongs here.

Power Book G4 15 Mac OS X (10.3.9)
