Welcome, @dave239955, to the community!
Footprints are typically included in newer datasheets, but unfortunately this is still missing here. In the meantime, ST has a cooperation with UltraLibrarian, which is also referred to via the CAD Resources tab, but unfortunately the footprint for the PPAK 5L in connection with the LF50ABPT-TR is still missing, too.
Workaround: the LDFMPT-TR also uses an absolutely identical package, so you can use its footprint even if it is a different LDO. Simply select tab CAD Resources and get the footprint from there.
Is that helpful?

Please don't use the footprint from the document on bdtic.com as it is from 2004 and much older than the current one mentioned above.
