Can I use clip art in a manual to sell to students?
I am updating an inhouse lab manual for students and want to add some clip
art where possible. If we use the clip art offered by Microsoft, print the manual and sell it at the campus bookstore, are we violating anything? |

The standard disclaimers: - I am not an attorney. - Read the End-User License Agreement, which is available by clicking a link in the Help About dialog. That agreement is legally binding, and states everything you're allowed to do. There is a paragraph (paragraph 1.5 in the Office 2003 EULA) that talks specifically about the "media elements", including the clip art. The way I read it, your proposed use is allowed. It forbids selling works that include the clip art only "if the primary value of the product or service is in the Media Elements". -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
