This may be a dumb question, but how do you make a document like that fake patient chart in this demo? [1]
Is there an editor that can do things like this? Or is it all laid out by hand?

Yes, done by hand, a lot of elbow grease. Same with the animation which took an insane amount of time (700 frames). Shout out to MonoDraw (Berkeley Mono works wonderfully with it): https://monodraw.helftone.com/
Ah, thank you for the response! I'm quite impressed, seeing that example nearly made me impulse buy the font.
It’s likely laid out by hand.
Given the file name “Artboard-2” my guess is that it’s done in Adobe Illustrator, but you can do that in any graphics editing tool like Photoshop, Figma, Sketch, etc.
For typographic work, I recommend a vector-based tool because it scales to any resolution.
Not saying this is what they used for this demo, but Crystal Reports is commonly used in the medical industry for print/reporting like that:
