HI,

I want to use few adobe pictures for a magazine that i sell . I sell about 1000 copies.

Thanks for your help

      My personal reading of the license conditions:

      • Title page: Extended as it is one of the most prominent arguments for selling a magazine.
        e.g. A travelers magazine with a nice vacation destination with smiling people on the cover should be a selling argument.
      • The same picture somewhere in the middle of the magazine for illustrating an article: standard license.

      In both cases you need to acknowledge the author and Adobe stock accordingly.

      (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.

      Hi Florie,

      Thanks for reaching out to the Adobe Stock community.

      As per the requirements you have stated above, you will be requiring an extended license.

      Note: Any asset featured for merchandise or for reselling purpose requires an Extended license.

      Please refer to Adobe Subscription and Cancellation Terms | Adobe  for more information on the licensing terms and restrictions.

      Hope this helps!

      Feel free to update this thread in case of any additional questions.

      Regards,

      Twarita

      I'm not sure that's right.

      If the image is used as a background on the cover or inside of the magazine, and has words over it, then the image is not the prominent thing. So a standard license should be okay, shouldn't it?

      See here, https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/legal/terms/enterprise/pdfs/PSLT-Stock-NA-2018v1.pdf  See 3.2. b

      And here, is says that a standard license is okay if the image is not used prominently. License information and Terms of use | Adobe Stock

      In a magazine with words over the image, the image is not prominent.

      Would you please consider your answer again, Twarita?
