Printing A4 will give a scale of 1:200

a3 is twice the size of A4, so it makes sense it would be 1:200 at A4 if it is 1:100 at A1

Is there no dimension you can scale off? If you have it in AutoCAD I can rescale it to be A4 at the correct scale....

Can't your printers software resize the drawing to fit an A4 page?

Go into the "page setup" on the software.

Allow it to print at what ever magnification you want, then print it on more than one page. you can trim and glue the 2 or 4 pages together!!

It could scale at 1:50, but it may not and It may not scale at any other size either, so you may be stuck. You need to be cautious if you print at A3 even as if there is a border, the print size will not correspond to scale entirely correctly
