Canvas - Known Issue - Watermark in Doc Viewer

When viewing files in the Canvas Document viewer, you may see a watermark over the file’s content.

When viewing presentation files in the Document Viewer, you might see a watermark that says Evaluation only. Created with Aspose.Slides for Java 23.3. Copyright 2004-2023 Aspose Pty Ltd.

Affects

This affects all presentation files uploaded before June 2, 2025.

Status

As of June 2, 2025, this incident has been resolved for any new uploads. However, Instructure engineers are in the process of repairing the existing files that are still showing watermarks.

Workaround

Currently, the workaround is to reupload the file. After reuploading, the document should display without the watermark.
