Okay. i take it from this thread that i may....

1.   Import a Poser figure/s as a UV mapped and exported obj file straight into Blender?

2.   I can extract the associated jpg textures from that Poser figure/s with 'TEXTRACT' utility to save them in my Blender project folder.

3.    Import those jpg's as new textures into my Blender project to apply straight to my imported obj figure?

Cos that's the way I've been working with Cinema XL so far. If the process is as i've stated above then Blender has no trouble importing characters and props from Poser.
