I wanted to use a couple of stock images in a book with print run of only 200.  Am I right in assuming that I can use this under Standard licence terms.

Yes, that is correct. As it says in the licence conditions: "Most Adobe Stock photos, vectors, and illustrations come with a Standard license. With a Standard license, you may:

Reproduce up to 500,000 copies of the asset in all media, including product packaging, printed marketing materials, digital documents, or software."

From the licensing perspective, there is no difference between for-profit and non-profit uses. A standard licence can be used, if the incentive to acquire the book is not based mainly on the images (like a photo book), but is only supporting the content (like a textbook with some images).

 

I agree with @Marianne-Deiters that you will not need a higher licence than a standard one, based on what you told us.

So would it be OK to use the Standard Image License inside a non-profit making book?

(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).
