hi, I am writing a book and creating training videos for sell,  
but I wander if i can use pictures from official documentation ([Unreal Engine 5 Documentation | Unreal Engine 5.0 Documentation](https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/)) for better explain the topics.

Thanks!

hi, I was read this faq:

> **[Frequently Asked Questions - Unreal Engine](https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/faq)**
>
> Thanks for considering Unreal Engine 4 for your development needs. Here you will find a list of common questions answered to make informed decisions with little guesswork.

“Can I create official documentation and textbooks?  
Yes. We’d love to hear about any contributions you’d like to make. Please utilize our resources and share information with the community. You can kick off discussions about this on the forums, chat with us on Twitter, add to the Wiki and attend our weekly Twitch stream.”

It say that I can use their resources, but not sure if i can sell it if i include a figure they created in my textbook.

I suggest you to read the terms of service or wait for an official answer from a staff member, I don’t recommend trusting the answer of an outsider when it comes to the legal terms. Only trust yourself and the staff to avoid conflicts.

You are permitted to use images of UE4 itself from Epic’s documentation for your own for-profit documentation.
