The young lady whose Christian website I manage, is trying to publish a booklet as a follow up.
Some of the clip art used on the web pages is taken from MS Publisher 2007 disk of Clip Art and will be reproduced in the booklet.

Does anyone know whether this is free to publish, or is some permission needed? Or would a simple acknowlegement suffice?

Any feedback would be appreciated.:thumbsup:

Not sure but you could contact Microsoft themselves

Many thanks. I think I'll do that. The young lady couldn't find anything definitive on the software pack.

EDIT: Tried that but couldn't find a way through without making a payment just for the advice.
Doesn't seem geared to this kind of enquiry.

In essence, no.

Thanks Apostropartheid ,
(People have been shot for having names like that! Long live the apostrophe)

I agree that in this case permission has to be sought.
