>But according to the above thread, I'd need at least Acrobat 8.0 to "enable" a PDF to be signed. What does that mean? 

It means that you need to use Acrobat 8.0 Professional or above to
prepare a PDF in a special way.

If this is not done, Reader cannot sign it.

> The form I received, by all appearances, *was* signed.

One possibility is that the person who signed it was not clear about
what software they actually have.

The EULA gives the legal details that lawyers would apply. It has
seemed that each copy used counts towards the 500. If there is ANY
POSSIBILITY of this limit being reached it is prudent to use Adobe's
server enabling software instead.
