Thanks for the information.

However, there are no such programs on the Mac. And it seems like overkill to
buy and learn how to use a PC, just to occationally be able to use this
feature, so there are no other solutions than to convert it manually.

In all practical aspects, this feature seems platform specific. It would have
been nice to be able to use Poser figures, but hopefully there will be a
solution for Mac users in version 4?
