I'm not voting to use Graphisoft resources to provide your wish, because an adequate method exists to serve you already.
Paste your scan/sketch/whatever into an Independent Detail or Worksheet and dimension/annotate it there. THEN bring it into your layout.
Trust me - this protects you against disaster.
