The objects you have used are 2D images with an alpha channel applied to them. This alpha channel is not read so you will see the full bounding box. Do you have transparency enabled in your view settings?

update:
if i place the object direct on the section or elevation, shows the 2D simbol for plan in place of the elevation, but not show in the 2D plan view. Looks bugged.

Right. I guess image alphas just do not work in 2D views. Was not sure about that as I photoshop in 2D elements into elevations rather than use face-mes. Not sure what you can do about that... It probably works the same way the image used in the default TV and Picture Frame objects. You cannot have their image show outside of the 3D view.
