The command line way is simple/direct: 1) Unzip the ODP file to disk 2) Look for any large image files 3) Load the large image files into an editor and reduce resolution/color depth, increase compression, whatever you need to do to make it smaller. 4) Save image file back to same name/same directory. 5) Zip up the directory, renaming it to and *.odp extension if needed. ODF files are just ZIP archives containing XML + binary resources like images. So they are very hackable from the command line, once you unzip them.
