Adobe Stock map language, translation

Hi,

 

I work at a book publishing house and would like to use a map from Adobe Stock in one of our non fiction books. The map is in English, but I need to translate it into Finnish. Is this modification OK within the Extended Licence, which I will be purchasing?

 

A further question about modifications: I need to add a couple of locations that are not in the original map AND I would need to somehow highlight an area which is not highlighted in the original but would serve our book's purpose, as the book deals with a current theme in which said area is in special focus. Are such modifications allowed within the Extended Licence?

Your book publishing house should have in-house support for all those questions, including the licence type you need.

 

As long as the book is not printed more than 500k times or the map does not represent the primary value of the book, you are free to use a standard licence for this.

 

Anyhow, what licence you take, you are free to modify the asset to your needs, with very few exceptions.

 

Look here for more information on licensing: https://community.adobe.com/t5/stock/links-for-licensing-terms/td-p/11366788
(Disclaimer: As always with licensing, this is my interpretation of the rules. I think they are correct and advice is based on reading and interpreting the licence terms and on fair use for both the buyer and the artist/stock company, but I cannot rule out that my interpretation is wrong. I'm not an Adobe employee).
