Paperspace, Viewport scaling Help.

Hello, I am fairly new to this level of CAD having previously only used it at university. I am having an issue with my scaling, when I try to put a drawing onto my paper space the scales seem to be completely wrong. The drawing is a small property at 1:1 but when I view it in the paper space on A2 the drawing is very small. There is a fix I am told that requires entering numbers like 10.00 and 20.00 to get 1:100 and 1:200 respectively. However I cannot find where I would enter these numbers and I am also unsure as to why it would be so unnecessarily complicated (I believe it is the way someone has set this up locally not CADs fault). I will attach images to help describe what I am talking about. 

Please any help would be very much appreciated and if you need more screenshots please just ask. 

 

Thank you.

Hi,

Make sure first that your sheet at the same dimensions unit that your plan use .. Now depending on your units that you use ( m,cm,mm ) you can put the right value for the paper scale . it can be 1 or 10 or 0.10 . Can we have your CAD drawing for testing please ?

Thanks for your CAD file ..

As i told you in my previous message .. Your model drawing is in Meter units and your sheet frame in paper space is in cm .. for that either you have to play with your zoom scale value or scale down your sheet ( meter ) , Click on below image and i hope that describe it well to you .
