Out of curiosity, what do folks typically use to create the PDFs for something like this? I assume there's an alternative to paying Adobe a subscription fee.

Industry standard for typesetting is Adobe InDesign, which is always morally permissible to p*rate. A great free alternative is Scribus. And of course, Microsoft Word (paid), Google Docs (free), openoffice (free), LibreOffice (free) and OnlyOffice (free) are all usable for basic typesetting and can export to PDF.
