RM refers to images which are “Rights Managed”: a non-exclusive, non-sub-licensable, non-assignable license for reproduction only within the work noted. “RF” refers to “Royalty Free”: you pay for a license once, for unlimited use. Generally, RF license fees are higher. However, Alamy will permit PUP authors to license RF images for RM rates for their PUP titles.

Other Options
Other image sites that we recommend are Shutterstock, Bridgeman, and iStock. Licensing and file charges for Corbis and AP Photos can be high and should be avoided, if possible.
