Student watermak bug on non student versions. Please provide assistance.

Anonymous — Mon, 25 Nov 2019 14:24:02 GMT

Hi,

I have a problem with the student warkemark. A same field coworker recive this watermarks on my dwg files only. We both don't have student versions of autocad. We have properly lincesed Autocad 2014 versions. At first we he had that problem only with some of the files recived from my place of work. So far we detected that sometime one of our 3 computers at work does this thing more often then the others. Now this watermark countine to appear more aggressively. We tried to send him the file via email, a usb stick and a dvd. On every transfer option the problem persist. We don't see the watermark, but he can't escape it. I talk about files that we created from scratch and even files that we edited.

Note:

He doesn't have that problem with files recived from other people.
We don't see the student watermark on our workstations and don't have problem with printing the files.
We tried to send those files to other people and they don't have that watermak displayed.
Beside AutoCAD 2014 we have another CAD software (progecad 2018) installed on our systems.

Please provide assistance because i can't find anything online to resolve this issue.

Student watermarks appears on

FILES

1) created by..,*

2) edited by.*

3) or that contains copied content from other files which created by a student version (or edited.. or contains copied content..)

[Number 3) only for copying in Version 2014 and older,]

"So far we detected that sometime one of our 3 computers at work does this thing more often then the others."

No, that's wrong. Or better: Then you open files with the student flag more often on this Computer.

Please note: If your 2014 displaying the EDU mark, your 2014 ist not updated!

But an updated 2014 (with updat1) will NOT show you the EDU marks!

That's a real problem for now and for later.

* Another possible problem, but i guess only for newer fileversions as R14

None Autodesk product who trying to copy the dwg format wrotes the wrong information into the DWG file,

they saved the information "Student file" inside.

There are a lot of Companys who not dealing with a licensed Autodesk interface.
