It depends on the terms and conditions of the software-i..e on the licensing agreement. If that agreement allows you to use the software for this purpose and to use the images (which otherwise would be copyrighted) for this purpose, you may. However, if the licensing agreement forbids this, that restriction would be enforceable and you may not. Review all documentation pertaining to the licensing agreement.
