I would like to generate a report that shows the decision tables specified using the DMN toolbox. So far I can only generate the names, but I want to see the tables in the resulting report as well.

I'm afraid you'll have to reproduce that yourself based on the xml string that stores the table info.
In theory you could do that with a script fragment, but it won't be easy.

I was afraid that would be the answer. The DMN notation had exactly the table format that I was trying to derive from other UML model elements and so I thought that would be a perfect canned solution I could use for my tabular representation problem. Back to the drawing board :)

I know the feeling. I had a short "wow this is cool, I'm going to use that for..." moment, followed quickly by a "Oh, but there's no (easy) way  to get that info into a document" dissappointment.

that's a real bummer.   :( :(   I was also hoping to get a formatted decision table into a report.

That's disappointing to hear. I was just in the state of "wow this is cool, I'm going to use that for..." But now in a state of

"Oh Bummer"
Happy to help
:)
