joelsherring Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Hi all, I am quite new and this question may have been asked though I couldn't find answer I was looking for so will create a thread. :) I am looking at buying Affinity software and want to know can I sell the content I make with it? Can any content I make be sold that was created though Affinity software? and is there any royalties to this? I am looking at using Affinity Designer so wondering when buying version that isn't education will allow me to create content for commercial use. Look forward to your reply. Thanks, Joel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdenby Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Here's what I know. The only licensing issues I know about are for using multiple copies for a business. The work produced w. the tool is your own. Affinity exports to standard file formats. The ownership of those is between you and the client.

gdenby Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 joelsherring, You might want to do a search on "Affinity Spotlight," and check out some of the artist's work showcased there. There's a fine Frankentoon designer tute, among other things. Also, check out the forum section "Share your work" for a peak of what people are doing, some of it w. direct business intent.

tariq Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Adobe is conserving charging 5% Creative Charge for works produced using Adobe CC that is used for commercial purposes. (joke, but maybe one day it won't be) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
