After banging my head on Adobe Reader for a bit, I now have a properly signed document to submit. The nuance I struggled with is the difference between an electronic signature and a digital signature. By CMRA policy, we must use a digital signature, which must be configured in Adobe Acrobat if you want your name to appear, which I assume is required and was certainly confusing when it didn't appear; it doesn't just work, at least to the degree the electronic signature does.

For Electronic Signatures, scroll to the bottom of that page and follow the link to information about them. There's a handy video that contrasts Digital Signatures and Electronic Signatures.
EDIT: to be more direct but still in a respectful, constructive manner, the process of setting up a digital signature isn't intuitive and the seemingly explicit instructions at the top could be improved for clarity. "Electronic signature" should be changed to "digital signature, and I provided a link above (and below) that would ideally be included in any instructions.
