Page-based Symbols very small in DWG export

At the office we have made custom symbols for the room names, grids, sections, etc. All of these symbols have been made as page-based symbols so that their size is the same regardless of the viewport scale. That way the annotation symbols in a detail at 2" = 1'-0" and a floor plan at 1/4" = 1'-0" are the same size. This is creating issues when the sheets are exported as DWG. The page-based symbols exports super small in the DWG file. If seems that the page-based symbols are not being scaled with the rest of the drawing to a 1:1 scale.

 

This has become an issue with sending CAD files to consultants because all the grids, section markers, room labels, detail bubbles, etc. are all too small to see in their cad drawings.

 

Is there something that can be done to avoid this? We are working on VW2017SP5.

 

Thanks,
