ArchiCAD ® Educational Version

ArchiCAD is the hugely popular virtual modeling solution developed by architects, for architects. It has formed the modeling core of over a million buildings worldwide; its open standards and numerous add-ons make it a must-have creative tool for any aspiring architect. ArchiCAD is not only powerful, architecture-specific and globally trusted, it’s also fun and simple to use and will add to your enjoyment as you build a career using some of the most advanced digital modeling tools available.

Limitations to the full commercial version are the following:
• All files created with the ArchiCAD student version will have an irremovable logo on all printouts. Further parameters of the Educational Version:
• ArchiCAD Educational Version is protected by a serial number.
• Educational and commercial project files have the same file format (PLN).
• Educational project file compatibility:
- Educational project files can be opened with a commercial version of ArchiCAD. In this case, ArchiCAD switches to Educational mode. The logo cannot be removed.
- Commercial project files can be opened with an educational version of ArchiCAD. In this case, the logo is added, and cannot be removed later.
- Besides “Open”, no other data exchange (copy, paste, merge, hotlink…) is allowed between EDU and commercial project files.
• The Educational version is “time-bombed”. The expiration date is determined by the Serial Number. When a serial number is nearing the expiry date, a new serial number can be entered to renew the license.
• Once an ArchiCAD is installed as an EDU version, it cannot be started as a full or demo version. The ArchiCAD EDU serial number has to be entered upon install; if there is no serial number, the EDU installation cannot be completed. Please note: ArchiCAD files created with educational version earlier than 9 (PNE, PAE…) are not compatible with the newer versions of ArchiCAD educational versions.
