Licenses and Use Cases

[Chris M @ TLT]

Hi there!

I have been using Adobe for quite sometime now, and had a general question in regards to using graphics I have made in Creative Cloud Express to put into client videos for YouTube and other soical media platforms.

From my research and going through community posts everything seems to be free of use, BUT am I able to insert graphics I have made in Adobe CC Express into a video for my clients without an speical licenses?

I made a simple graphic using some of the icons/shapes using Adobe CCExp and wanted to make sure that I did not need a speical license for it.

Any solid answer would be awesome! Thank you!

Hi Chris, 

Thank you for reaching out. Seems you want to use the graphics for commercial use. If yes, then commercial use and in products should be ok. The only factor would be the licensing terms of any stock assets you use in your design. Here's more information if you use Adobe Stock assets:

I did not pull anything from Adobe Stock, I only pulled from CC Express and
used the shapes tool.

Do I need any licenses for those? I ended up talking to someone on the live
chat function and they said it was good to go.
