How to Remove Produced by an Autodesk Educational Product Plot Stamp

Our guy on site ask me how to remove “Produced by an Autodesk Educational Product” on his drawing.  The Autodesk stamp is seen on all sides of the drawing which is normally appear when you are using Autodesk Educational Product.

The thing is he is not using the educational release, he is using a licensed one so this plot stamp should not be present in his drawing.  Quick research shows that the stamp is some kind of Autodesk bug (not sure about this but this is what I read from autocad forum & discussion).

autodesk autocad product

What should he do then to remove the plot stamp “Produced by an Autodesk Educational Product“?

Follow these steps:

  1. Open the affected drawing
  2. Type dxfout in the command prompt
  3. Save the dxf in the location you can easily access
  4. Now, type dxfin in the command prompt
  5. Browse the file you save in step 3
  6. Save the file as dwg

The Produced by an Autodesk Educational Product should be removed upon completion of the steps above.  If the educational product plot stamp still appears, check the xref file and apply the steps I’ve mentioned above.

  1. i copied a block from student version file. though im not using student version im still getting the mark! above steps didnt help. pls advice

  2. save your drawing that the block is in as a .dxf, exit autocad and open up the dxf, the watermark will have gone and you can even resave the file as a dwg and hopefully it’ll be free from any educational rubbish!

    Alternatively you can select the block, type wblock and save it as a dxf, this will create a drawing with only what you have selected in it. Apply the same steps as above and copy and paste the block you need into your fully licenced drawing. hope this helps.

  6. hi im just wondering if i start doing autoCad drawings on a fully licensed AutoCad programme, for example in college, and bring them home to finish on my student version, and plot and print the finished drawings back on the fully licensed version in college, will the autodesk educational stamp still appear???
