You actually can use FreeDoom if you want by loading it as a custom IWAD. If you visit the site's landing page (https://doompdf.pages.dev/) you can upload the IWAD file, and then it'll generate a new PDF file (that can even be saved and redistributed).

However, I chose the shareware version since the file size is a lot smaller and it's more recognizable to people.

I just added this as a feature. You can launch the game with custom WADs at the site's landing page (https://doompdf.pages.dev/). It'll open a new PDF file as a blob URL (and you can even save and redistribute the PDF it generates).

A disclaimer though - I don't have any experience with Doom modding. I don't know if the behavior of this feature is correct. All it does is it loads the PWAD by passing the "-file" argument to the game's main function.
