Place 2D DWG plan in 3D window/document

Hi,

I'm trying to take a 2D imported DWG/DXF surveyors data file and place it into the 3D window underneath the 3D elements so as to be able to produce some nice rendered coloured images of the project with the black and white DWG info underneath as a slab or mesh face.

Have tried using an image as a surface and fill image and placing it on mesh and slab elements or as a DWG imported and saved as an object. The former I can't get to scale, the latter won't show in 3D. I'm sure this is a really simple thing to do but I'm stuck.

Any help much appreciated. Anyone know how to do this?
