Any digital images, stock photographs, clip art, or other artistic work (collectively, “images”) delivered with any Adobe product may be used in accordance with the rights set out in the End-User License Agreement that ships with the product. If your intended use falls within the terms of the End-User License Agreement or other product documentation, further written permission is not required.

Note that images on Adobe product boxes, Adobe.com product web pages, Adobe mobile app product pages and Adobe app launcher tiles or start-up screens may not be used except as provided in the guidelines for box shots and product imagery.

Any images delivered with an Adobe product and not provided for in the End-User License Agreement are not available for use. In some instances, images included in Adobe products may be owned by a third party and licensed under terms different from those contained in the Adobe End-User License Agreement. Under these circumstances, the Terms of Use for third-party images are stated in ReadMe or text files associated with that image. If you are seeking to use third-party images or content outside the scope permitted in the terms of the ReadMe or text files, contact the copyright owner directly for permission. It is unlikely that Adobe will be able to grant permission beyond that contained in the End-User License Agreement due to contractual restrictions, third-party rights, and other intellectual property restraints. Please also refer to the section "Important note on image usage rights".

Under no circumstances will Adobe license the reproduction, distribution, or modification of any third-party images displayed on Adobe.com. See the Adobe.com Terms of Use for additional information.
