I need to embed the documents, .odp and .odt into my WordPress/Elementor site.

How do I pull this off? IFrames don't seem to work

That's going to be tricky, they need to be rendered by the browser or a plugin to display correctly. Even if you get it to work on your end, every user would have to have an identical setup to use your site. The default browser behavior would be to download those file types.

I'd suggest to reformat them to xml or standard html instead and offer a download link.

OpenOffice documents are xml

Yeah but only if they are called xml and the server supports interpreting them, they'll be displayed correctly by the browser.
