I am wanting to do a survey and compile the data with Adobe Acrobat 8. Professional. Is there any limit on the number of forms I can compile?

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 8.1.2, Macintosh

There are certain limitations associated with forms that are reader-enabled. Here is a brief summary taken from Ted Padova's blog entry [url=http://www.acrobatusers.com/articles/2006/09/enabling_reader]More Enabling Features for Adobe Reader[/url].

Quote:
To summarize the EULA as it relates to enabling PDFs, you are granted permission for enabling a PDF for a maximum of 500 uses. This means that if you post a PDF enabled form on your Web site and 500 people fill out the form, you're within the licensing agreement. If you enable a form where more than 500 people fill out and submit the form back to you, you're not complying with the licensing in the EULA. There are many uses for staying within the 500 limit. You might want to enable files used as a purchase order form, a travel expense form, a vacation leave form, etc. The form can be used by several Adobe Reader users many times, but needs to stay within the 500 use limitation.
