A student friend has recently purchased AutoCAD 2011 that shows a educational stamp. Can she copy the work in model space and print in a commercial license without the plot stamp.

 

I am bit confused as her university education AutoCAD (educational version) does not print the stamp?

 

:?

It is a violation of the EULA to use content created with the educational version of an AutoDesk program in a commercial version.

First mistake - students can download AutoCAD 2011 for free from http://www.autodesk.com/edcommunity

University license is not the same as student license.

 

In any case, the stamp is no problem for edu work - if one of her professors complains then simply schedule an appointment with the professor's Dean and suggest a discussion on ethical use of student software with the professor.

I did not know there was such a thing as a University License. Then it is not the same as a Commercial License?

If it's the EDU version, then it includes the plot stamp.

Run the ._ABOUT command on her "university version" and see what it says about the license type.

I don't know that they call it "university license", I think it is edu license, I'll check next time I'm in my office. I know it doesn't print banner at least while using that license (don't know if it will print banner if the file is taken to commercial seat).

 

I know my home install says Student License when I go to Help>About...>Product Information and of course it does print banner.

JD,

 

You are correct. The Autodesk Master Suite (aka educational/university) license does NOT have the plot stamp. The students version either purchased or downloaded from Autodesk will display the Educational Stamp.

Is the AutoDesk Master Suite the equivalent of a commercial license? Could the college produce their own drawings for construction of a building on campus?
