I read go post and see tutorials but I can't figure out where I'm wrong in the text setting,
I attach a file to better understand my problem I can not see the annotative text on paper space and pattern of the same size as happens for non annotative odds.
thanks in advance

I took a look.
I think you drew in cm.
then you selected the 1:100 scale. but you must be careful that you have definitely set the print in mm in autocad (like 99% of those who use autocad. in practice you have not considered the passage of the units of measurement.

there are several solutions to the problem.
(1) the easiest is to use scale 1:10 because it also considers the change of units of measurement.
this because in reality autocad is working in mm.
the scale factor must always be thought:
Measuring unit converted into mm stands at the scale factor
if you work in cm then:
1cm = 10mm that stands at 100 or 10:100 that you can write even 1:10. This is where the conversion of the measurement unit comes from.

(2) another solution is to change all the stairs leaving the old name but changing the scale factor. then scale 1:100 is only a name because the factor will be 1=10.

(3) Third solution is to alter the second scale of autocad (the one you have in print) to work in cm and leave the stairs as they are. a colleague of mine works like this but makes it difficult for others to manage his stairs.

in practice the standard scale list of autocad is designed for those who work in mm.

I also work often in cm (typical for those who work in the field of structures in c.a.) and adopted the first solution. I often mix designs in different units (m, cm, mm) and different scales and therefore I preferred to keep as a reference base the standard settings of autocad.

p.s.
the writings think them directly in mm and put the measure in the sheet box.
In your case, if you want 5mm tall writings, just write 5 in the sheet text height box.

p.p.s.
I'll attach the correct design to you.
note that you should have doubt that something was wrong because it has almost 60m away and if you stop at 100 you don't need an a4 to contain it.
I then used as an a1 format.
