    A watermarked image is unlicensed and is not allowed to be used for publication. The watermarked image should only be used showing the customer how the design could look and may be to allow the customer to choose between different motives.

    You can edit watermarked images for showing your final customer how you intend to present the picture, but you should not post a watermarked image publicly as the final design. You need to license the image first.

    Hi Chang,

    I'd advise you to go through the Adobe Stock terms of use and restrictions as mentioned here: Stock Licensing & terms FAQ: Where can I find the terms and licensing information for Adobe Stock?

    Let me know if you still are unable to get the answer.

    Regards,

    Sheena

    Thank you.

    1.Do you mean the watermarked image is unlicensed?

    2.Users cannot edit the watermaked image and post it on FB or other social media,

    or even add a trademark on  the watermarked image?
