I agree it is an issue with pdf creation. Have not tested with true paper printing, but I expect it to be the same.
Working with very large geographical surveyor coordinates can also induce problems with professional commercial cad programs. Such large coordinate values demand great calculation efforts and can result in inaccuracies. The recommendation is to move the drawing content near to 0,0 position.

There is no function in LibreCAD to really cut the drawing to a certain frame. You would have to do this manually, which can be a lot of work, especially for cutting colour fills and hatches.

Yes, use a custom paper size, and that's it. I don't see an advantage in the procedure you have provided the link for. But feel free to make your own experiments.
