"...create an obj in Poser..." There should be an .obj in the geometries folder already that you should be using. Look at the top of the .cr2 file in a text editor if you need to find out where it's located. A lot of the items from Daz have templates already made that you can download. I assume that you're just using the existing mapping. If you remap or create a new map you'll have to save the .obj file (preferably under a new name) and change the references (2) in the .cr2 file to point to the new .obj file--apologies if you already know all that :-) You can choose the size of the template when you save it in UVMapper as whatever size you want e.g. bigger if you need better detail. The template is just a template, the mapping info is saved in the .obj file. That's why if you change things e.g. change planar mapping to box mapping, you have to save the .obj file. And it looks like Mr. Swamp has answered the mystery question--makes sense to me at least.
