      Hi @qtnewbie12345

      I would like to write a book about basic programming to beginners using qt.

      Go for it! :)

      Also, is it possible to use the qt logo in the book?

      https://www.qt.io/trademark/ says (emphasis mine):

      Without limitation, the following uses of the Qt trademarks are not permitted:
      ...
      2.8 Use of the Qt trademarks on the cover of a book or publication without an express written license.

      @qtnewbie12345 asked:

      How do I go about getting permission from qt company?

      No sure, but https://www.qt.io/trademark/ says:

      If you have any questions regarding these guidelines, wish to report any misuse of the Qt trademarks, are unsure whether you require a trademark license or wish to obtain a license to use the Qt trademarks, please contact The Qt Company General Counsel Mika Pälsi (legal@qt-project.org)

      Be sure to let us know how you get on with the book! :)

      Cheers.

        Hi @qtnewbie12345

        @Paul-Colby has the trademark part right there. To get the Qt logo on the book, The Qt Company would like to see the manuscript and make sure it is of good quality. This has been done in the past, and is a quick review. You can ping me or mail legal once you have the text ready.

        That said, we would love to see more Qt books :)
