Using Revit 2013.  We have a cad floor plan that we've linked into our Revit model. We want to annotate it using Revit's "User Keynote tags", but it's not allowing me to keynote it.  We don't want to redraw the plan in Revit as this is an entire building we're demolishing.  Any ideas on how to keynote it?  Thanks!

hi.

open new family>generic detail item>import DWG>load detail item to revit>you can now use keynote and select the DWG. (if cannt tag then try to explode DWG in the detail item editor)

You can create a detail family that can be placed then keynoted.  We put an invisible line (circle) in the detail so that it will host the keynote.
