You drew all your objects in model space at full size right?
 
And you have a paper space layout with a viewport too?

Then what is the problem?
 
If you are plotting to a different sheet size use the Page Setup Manager to modify your settings.
As far as the viewport goes choose a different scale and make sure you lock the display.
