Good resources and information for doing encoding / creation of PDF files?
You might also want to take a look at existing libraries how they generate PDF. For example the PDF backend library at https://github.com/speedata/boxesandglue (from me). Or create simple documents with PDFTeX for example, PDFTeX produces clean output.

I love LaTeX. I hate LaTeX
I have a related feeling about TeX. It has superb output quality but the programming is awful. When LuaTeX finally arrived a few years ago, it was possible to do almost everything you have done before in the TeX language (starting with \backslashes) in Lua.
See http://wiki.luatex.org/index.php/TeX_without_TeX for an introduction.
I have (shameless plug) created a database publishing software using this technique (https://github.com/speedata/publisher/). Once in a while I have to use LaTeX and it feels a bit old school to do the macro programming.
My next project is to rewrite the TeX algorithms in Go - see https://github.com/speedata/boxesandglue. Already usable but not TeX like in any way (this is just a library, not a frontend software like TeX)

I love LaTeX. I hate LaTeX
Same, I just did my resume in LaTeX, it's such an obtuse and painful tool, yet nothing even comes close to the control it gives you, short of using desktop publishing software.
