Now that the project is done, we want to give our industry contract (who's plant our design is based on) the Inventor file of our design. I've been reading that there can be some consequences to opening a student version file in the paid version of Inventor, mainly it will "Infect" any paid version file that it is placed into with a water mark saying "student version". We've been using the Inventor student version to create our design, which is entirely within our agreement to use the student version, since this is directly contributing to our learning, and a requirement for our degree.

I'm a 4th year student studying mechanical engineering in university, and we've been working on my final year design project.
