open Dimension Style Manager and select the Fit tab. on the "Use Overall Scale" option, divide 12 by your scaled viewport and put the number in there. if you have multiple scales in paperspace, have an option for each. for instance: if you have 3/4" scale, then take 12 and divide it by .75, which gives you 16, so you put 16 in the "Use Overall Scale" option. just set the other properties to what you want like text height and etc. and you're done. 8)
