Educational plot stamps

[acad.user]

One of my friend complains that some drawings he received from a vendor while opened in AutoCAD 2004 gives a warning, "Educational plot stamp detected", and the same appears while plotting. Why this happens and is there any remedy for this?

Thanks in advance,

Issue


When you plot a drawing that was created in or that contains drawing data
that was created in the Educational (Student and Faculty) version of
AutoCAD® or AutoCAD-based software, the following plot stamp or watermark
appears in the plot:

For Educational Use Only

Solution


There is no way to circumvent the plot stamp. This is as designed to
discourage the commercial use of an educational version of an AutoCAD
product. Autodesk sells educational versions of software on the premise that
the software will be used for educational purposes only.

This can also occur when using blocks or other components of drawings that
have been created or modified in an Educational version. This includes
layers, blocks, layouts, and so on.
