What software/program are sell-side analysts using to design and compile their ER reports?

To be specific, what program is being used to create these crisp PDF's?

I have been looking for a good tool to use but I keep resorting to Canva because I cant find anything powerful enough. Forget MS word, I cant see that being used because of how painful the formatting support is.

I've looked all over the website and have found nothing. Appreciate any insight/suggestions.
