If you just put some random CAD file in then chances are it won't scale correctly. So using the detail item family ensures that providing you've got the correct size initially then it'll all scale accordingly. Now Revit has quite a few 2D detail items. You'll find them in the family. So you scroll down to families and detail items. These are the ones that are either loaded by default or just I've loaded in myself. We're going to make the button first, which is a 38 by 50.
