Converting Carrara hair to polygon hair for other packages ?

Paige Hair for Genesis 8 & 3 Female(s)

I saw this PhilW product in the store and was quite struck by the description:-
"Using a new work flow to convert Carrara dynamic strand-based hair into polygon hair usable in Daz Studio and with the latest figures."

Am I to understand that if Carrara hair is converted to a polygon textured mesh which can react to a render engine in a different program - not just Daz, but in theory Modo or Lightwave too ?  If anyone could enlighten me any more I would be very grateful indeed.

I am beginning to see that the power of Carrara hair is something of a well kept secret... laugh

    The default uvmap is a single square grid.  Use a frayed alpjha at the bottom.  However, it occurs to me that the mesh could be sent to a uvmapping program for a new uvmap.
