I've had consultants send me their HVAC or structural drawings and they were edu version of auotcad. Also some smaller countries don't seem to care either. I can see that happening from Chinese drawings. I'd like to keep my free software to play with. I don't want to lose that privilege by using those for commercial stuff or even having those version on my work computer. Which is really nice as I'm using it to learn all kinds of software that I wouldn't normally have access too. Being an autodesk expert elite I have access to all of autodesk software. I try to be very careful with not getting edu licenses mixed in. I'm always leery about asking things like this because people assume a lot of the times that you are trying to get away with something shady. Sure I can go back to a back up version but I'm trying to avoid that PITA. Would or could it change my archicad file to edu? I also ask about dwg files being edu versions as occasionally I might find a detail dwg that I might want to put into my archicad projects?īasically I don't want to get weeks into a project in archicad only to grab a dwg block, or revit family and BOOM my file is now an edu version file by accident. My question is what would happen if the revit object I put into archicad was from the edu version of revit? There's really know way for me to know unless I had a commercial version of revit to check (that I know of). I've been messing with the tool that lets you put revit families into archicad as objects. I asked on the student forum because I figured people here would know more about the edu stamps.Īt my last firm we had to be careful what blocks we downloaded for autocad because a block made in a student version would flag our project as educational. I'll probably just do a test, but that will require me to download a student version of either autocad or revit to try it. I tried searching for this answer but can't find anything close to an answer.
