blocks in model space and paper space

I'm struggling with blocks that appear to be the correct size and spaced correctly in model space but then when viewed in paper space they are huge and all over each other. Model space is 1"=10', viewport is 1"=100'. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

James,

 

It sounds like your blocks are not in the same units as your drawing. Check the scale when you insert your blocks, and also check here:

Another possibility:  Annotative Scale.  If the block is defined to use it, then placement and viewing of the block will depend on the VP scale.
