Can I use a clip art image in marketing materials for free?
I've read the rules several times, and I'm still not sure.
For example, can I take the photo image of a diamond ring, dowload it, and
use it on a post card I am sending to clients - for free?

Hi,
I am working in marketing department at the non-profit orgranization. We
usually produce educational flyers that are distributed for free to our
members.
We do have a licence for Microsoft products.

I am planning to use the Microsoft Clip Art images in my flyers.
Are they royalty free? If not, how can I purchase them?

Thank you for your patience and understanding...
