If you run nuvexport in debug mode it shows you all of the command-lines 
it is running, so you could just do that for something in your database, 
get the proper command-lines, and then substitute the non-db filenames 
where appropriate. I haven't tried it, but it should work with a little 
tweaking. Then you could probably write a small wrapper script to take a 
filename as input to semi-automate it.
