Okay, I found those PDF Export Options - I had to create a Layout Template first, and then if I use the export to PDF it is successful, but TBH my template is blank and I am not sure how to bring things from my map into the template to print to PDF from there. If I go back to the map screen and export the map, it is still exporting as a static unlayered image.
>A couple of things I noticed, in the Layout template the "append georeference >information" is greyed out and automatically checked off and I cannot turn it >on or off. [cid:906d6182-487a-4c22-8614-795ac1e86244] >If I do the export to PDF in the map, when I toggle on "Create Geospatial PDF >(GeoPDF)" the export fails [cid:a0a11849-fb21-45d0-9973-a7e31dcd6b0a] >and I get this Warning error: [cid:fff22269-7979-4f19-8605-560601068549] Would anyone happen to know why? And if so, would these things be affecting my ability to export out layered pdf files?

I'm pretty new to QGIS. In the first link you sent, are those PDF Export Options set in Adobe or in QGIS, and if so, where do I find the settings to see if this how things are currently configured? I was able to open your map and turn the layers on and off successfully.

One of them is 'GeoPDF', a layered pdf, which you can create if you create a layout first in QGIS and then export that to pdf. For the options see: https://us-east-2.protection.sophos.com?d=duif.net&u=aHR0cHM6Ly9kdWlmLm5ldC9wZGZvcHRpb25zLnBuZw==&i=NjQ5Mzg2NjJmZjkyMWQxZWJjMzdlZTIy&t=c1doNm4vaE9oZ2EwTGVVWVZVU2JmZlJZd3luTWVjK05VbE90L2Z2ekxuUT0=&h=c3813583a6ac458e9b68ca37023b1fee&s=AVNPUEhUT0NFTkNSWVBUSVbQ7Gfw17B4TVr-pQzE51zlED6SQ6KUI3my4CFDYCiGSw I've exported a simple map of two layers to: https://us-east-2.protection.sophos.com?d=duif.net&u=aHR0cHM6Ly9kdWlmLm5ldC9ubC5wZGY=&i=NjQ5Mzg2NjJmZjkyMWQxZWJjMzdlZTIy&t=cG1MR0tOOVBiRU05Y3NPUUJiY2trK29veExXbDBXdHNNYVQ3WFgxbjRxTT0=&h=c3813583a6ac458e9b68ca37023b1fee&s=AVNPUEhUT0NFTkNSWVBUSVbQ7Gfw17B4TVr-pQzE51zlED6SQ6KUI3my4CFDYCiGSw In most pdf viewers you can check/uncheck both layers, AND you can 'identify' objects there. Can you check if that is what can be handled by your tools?
