OK, done. Not sure how much help I'll be, but I'm certainly interested.

Wahey. Well done that man. I'm impressed! Was that mostly taking
notice of the stroke widths?

OK in inkscape 0.46, I still have the huge canvas and searching for
text didn't help, but I did eventually find an image. There is an
interesting selection of artifacts. Various items collected below the
main drawing on top of each other, and a lot of repeated text at tiny
scale and even smaller little tiny lines - not sure what they are all
from. I'll get out the paper plans and see which of these objects
shouldn't be visible. I also get most of the main plan drawing hidden
below a given zoom resolutions  - then one step bigger and it is
already much bigger than the screen. Not sure what is going on there -
it is as if there is a large white area overwriting the image.

Still, good progress.

Manually removing all the objects at -1,180,000 shrinks the image
somewhat. All those -1.18million co-ordinates mized in with other more
sensible number look suspicious. Some kind of scale/offset error seems
likely. Guess I should compare with the libreDWG log co-ordinate output.

How does the DWG co-ordinate model work? All absolute or lots of
relative chunks, or something more complex?

Wookey
