That stamp is there for a reason.  Seems some people get a hold of the educational version of AutoCAD and use it in a commercial business (i.e. - making money).  This is a violation of the EULA.

I hope that is not the case here.

Try the DXFOUT to r12 release trick.

Legally you cannot remove the stamp.  It's there because the drawing was created using an educational version of the software.  And (as John noted) it is a violation of the terms of usage to do so.  It would also be unethical for anyone here to give you a solution or point you to a "hack'.

If you are going to use AutoCAD in a business or for profit in any way you need to purchase a licensed copy.  With that you will have unrestricted use.

Unauthorized usage drives up the cost of software for everyone.

Maybe you can try X-ref that file (with stamp) to new file..And then you should bind that x-ref file..and then you explode that block file..And then Save as that file..You can try again with that file..

I had the same problem while working on drawings made by an Architect. He was also using an educational version. I saved the drawing as .dxf and then again converted the .dxf into .dwg format. The STAMP was gone.

I used a workaround of sorts once.  If you plot your drawings to pdf format, you can use Adobe Acrobat to cover up the educational stamp. I did that once while using an educational license at the license-holding institution, for in-house presentation without the stamp. I don't believe generating digital or hardcopy plots and sidestepping the educational stamp in those circumstances violated the EULA. If the plots left the institution - then your'e getting into a grey area...

ok, so after using an old 2008 version, then on to a  educational version of 2013 for a bit, I am now trying to install a regular 2013 version but having the stamp still show up. I did my best to delete all of the files accociated with the EDU software, and then install the new software but the stamp keeps coming back.  totally different serial # and product key used of course. Any thoughts?
Thank you

Your safest best is to completely remove everything Autodesk from your computer and start over.  Follow the instructions >Here< to the letter.

Are you viewing/using drawings you created using the educational version?
