Watermarked Output#

Some of our license types create a watermark in the footer of all output created using that license. This is to prevent commercial use of our non-production license types.

Watermarked content contains a footer that reads one of the following:

"Created by demo version of Windward - www.windwardstudios.com"

"Report created by Windward test version - www.windwardstudios.com"

"Report created by Windward Developer System - www.windwardstudios.com"
