If it's a .pp2 that has embedded geometey, UVMapper will read it and create a template just like it will for a standalone .obj file. As long as you don't change the mapping, you should be able to save the template and use it as if. In Windows, you can just drag and drop the .pp2 ontothe UVMapper window. Same goes for hair (.hr2) files, UVMapper will extract the embedded geometry and create the template. If you change the mapping, then you're going to have to save the .obj and import that into Poser and resave as a prop. I imagine exporting as an .obj from Poser will accomplish the same thing but it seems easier to me to let UVMapper extract the geometry.
