1 - The coordinates are from -2147.483648mm to 2147.483648mm.
But I talked about a board, not coordinates.
This is a bit different.
For instance in some calculations, we calculate absolute values, therefore 0 to 2147.483648
and a diagonal distance limits coordinates to 0 to 2147.483648/1.414 = 1.6m

This is the reason I am thinking a board is (roughly) limited to 1m x 1m

2 - In this case, a text located at -2147.483648 mm cannot be correctly draw because segments drawn to create the text shape can have smaller y coordinates.
We need a margin around the x and y text coordinates

I also am thinking this is a board file modified by hand.
