I am trying to import some autocad details into Revit. The details are drawn in model space and the text/dimensions are in paper space. When i pull them into revit i only get the paper space info. (if i delete all of the paper space info, the model space linework imports, but at full size) Is there a way to bring everything in together with the proper relative size? Thanks-

Unfortunately Revit can't calculate for bad drafting. As you've stated the text and dimension in paper space are drawn at a different scale and revit can't calculate for both. The only thing i can suggest is try importing the dwg into a sheet as opposed to a view and see if this works.
