Well, you can start by picking up the free quickstart: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/222948/Star-Trek-Adventures-Quickstart
You will also need some dice. Because you need a few d20s and some d6s, you could probably get one of the multipacks of dice and be outfitted pretty well for not much money. Something like this would give you all the d20s and six-siders you need: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07586H7KJ
Whether you can deal with PDF only really depends on you. What do you read PDFs on? I couldn't do PDF with a phone or with a laptop, my iPad is a must-have and I wish I had one of the bigger ones. I ran PDF-only for years after moving abroad and have since begun ordering paper copies again...but I do most of my actual reading and running from the iPad still!
The good news is, you can try out the quickstart for free and know the answer before you commit to ordering the books. Get the PDF even if you get the book.
Yeah, the Federation isn't 10,000 light years across. But ultimately there is no good definitive answer for size or shape of the Federation. The Star Charts book was the basis for the Star Trek Adventures map, the Star Trek Online game, and the map shown in Discovery, so it's the closest thing to "official" that exists. And the warp scale fleshed out for the TNG: Technical Manual (Warp Factor\^(10/3)) is still too slow to really make Trek style travel plausible, as illustrated in this tweet.
So for my campaign, I'm using the map from startrekmap.com, which takes the work from Star Charts and builds on it and I bumped up the warp scale from x^(10/3) to x^(10/2.5), which was just enough to be able to let my players fly around the map at speeds fast enough to be interesting but slow enough to be constrained. It doesn't much matter right now, because we're still in the beginning of the campaign and it's adventure of the week structure for the time being, but if I can actually follow through on my desire to maintain consistency, it might develop into a salient factor later on.
you could forgo minis and use 1 inch wood circles painted or gluing on printed faction logos, giving you a tactical overlay feel.
You might be aware already, but the Shackleton Expanse and Starbase 364 Narendra Station are both non-canon and were added by Modiphius to create new gameplay settings. If your group wants to stick as closely to canon as possible, then you'll want the maps from this book: https://www.amazon.com/Star-Trek-Stellar-Cartography-Starfleet/dp/1477805974
It has an updated version of the map from Star Charts Alpha & Beta Quadrant map, which contains a few errors as it was released in the middle of Enterprise's run. Unfortunately, I don't think there's a scanned version online anywhere I can find.
