Images designated for “Editorial use only” fall into two categories — the Adobe Stock Editorial collection and the Illustrative Editorial collection. The Adobe Stock Editorial collection contains photos that feature worldwide events in news, sports, and entertainment. It also includes a stunning collection of archival imagery.
Illustrative Editorial content spans photos, illustrations, and vectors and includes imagery that features popular consumer brands. Assets designated for “Editorial use only” are marked “Editorial only” when you hover over them in the search results and under the “Restriction” section in the image information.
You can use Adobe Stock assets, except for the ones marked “editorial use only,” in any creative project, such as print ads, brochures, presentations, posters, book covers, commercials, websites, and annual reports. For the complete Adobe Stock image licensing terms, see http://www., and adobe., and com/go/stockterms.
The Adobe Stock Editorial collection offers images and videos that are newsworthy, timely, and depict real people, events, places, and products. Adobe Stock Editorial images are available in two sizes: small image suitable for web use and limited print runs (US$49.99) and full-resolution image with unlimited print runs (US$199.99).
