Point Display Problem

I have a drawing with viewport at 1:750, my points display fine.

When I create a copy of this paper space layout in a new tab, the points show up tiny.

Everything appears to be identical.

What am I doing wrong?

in paper space

right click on the layout tab and go to page setup manger, then click modify

and make sure your scale is set to the correct units for your drawing and save your layout by clicking ok

rjairath  you are have right when you said

"in paper space  right click on the layout tab and go to page setup manger, then click modify

Yes you need to the modify section of the Layout. You should set the sheet type say A1 and scale to 1:1000 if working in Metric. Than back in the layout, double click in the veiwport and set the scale in the bottom right to the scale you would like, say 1:750. You may need to regen. This way when you plot the drawing you will always use a paper scale of 1:1000, but the text in the drawing will show up as 1:750
