You can first export the datasets into Excel sheets (files) using the following approach:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/ea02f8e8-edf5-4aca-8c74-ef3a94b5328d/export-dataset-into-excel-sheet-in-c

After this, you can convert the result Excel files into PDF documents using the .NET document conversion features from LEADTOOLS.
The following code (for example) converts an excel file into PDF document using the DocumentConverter class from LEADTOOLS:
using (DocumentConverter documentConverter = new DocumentConverter())
{
   var srcFile = @"C:\dataset1.xls";
   var targFile = @"C:\dataset1.pdf";
   var tartarformat = Documenttarformat.Pdf;
   var jobInfo = DocumentConverterJobs.CreateJobData(srcFile, targFile, tarformat);
   jobInfo.JobName = "Convert Excel to PDF";
   var jobMain = documentConverter.Jobs.CreateJob(jobInfo);
   documentConverter.Jobs.RunJob(jobMain);
}
You can find more information here:

And finally, if you want to merge all the PDF reports into one large PDF, you can use the PDFFile class from LEADTOOLS to merge them.
This C# code shows how you can do this:
string FileName1 = @"C:\dataset1.pdf";
string FileName2 = @"C:\dataset2.pdf";
string FileName3 = @"C:\dataset3.pdf";
string destinationFileName = @"Merged.pdf";
// Merge 1 with 2 and 3 into one PDF
PDFFile pdfFile = new PDFFile(FileName1);
pdfFile.MergeWith(new string[] { FileName2, FileName3 }, destinationFileName);

Take a look at Spire.PDF. It supports to insert new pages into an existing PDF document and export data from data sets to the new pages.
