What the person replying was saying was that 7 chord is played by using the 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th elements of the scale with the 7th one flattenned a semitone. The maj7 chord is the same but the 7th note is not flattenned. Now you asked specifically about F7 and Fmaj7 so in this case the scale to which those numbers refer is the one that starts on 'F' so the notes you would actually play would be F A C Eb for F7 and F A C E for Fmaj7. Using the numbers you could work out what E7 or Emaj7 would be or indeed for any root note.
