⚠️ 6 Design Software Gotchas to Watch For
Stock Asset Restrictions:HIGH Templates, icons, and images included in design tools often have separate licenses—commercial use, resale, or trademark registration may be prohibited
Font Licensing Gaps:HIGH Fonts available in the tool are licensed for on-platform use only. Exporting designs with embedded fonts may violate the font license for print or commercial use
AI Training Rights:MEDIUM Many design platforms now claim rights to use your designs to train AI models, either in the ToS or through default privacy settings
Export Format Limitations:MEDIUM Free tiers often restrict export to web-resolution only. High-res exports, SVG, or certain file formats may require paid plans
Collaboration Viewer Limits:MEDIUM "Unlimited viewers" often means view-only. Editing seats may be strictly limited, and guest editors may count against your seat quota
Version History Limits:HIGH Design file history may be limited (e.g., 30 days). After that period, you lose the ability to restore previous versions of your work
