At the moment, your best option is Open Source: Voxel Viewer.
All you need to do is to set the proper camera rotation and take a screenshot. You can take screenshots straight to OS SHP Builder or save them as bitmap or jpeg.
If you choose Bitmap or JPG, open OS SHP Builder and import your image with it.

Hmm, you couldn't you make a little button that would automatically render the voxel for x amount of facings and save it to a spritesheet, could you?

use flyby´s voxelimporter for 3ds and then render it with his shp-tools...
@Banshee
i think it's very good idea to making tool that help people can convert their voxel to shp form. that help prople can solve some voxel problem like move section voxel don't cast shadow. and people can edit their unit in photoshop.
i think all you need is only improve your voxel viewer can cast shadow adding camera tool and export to shp option.
i don't know how hard to do that because i'm not programer. but with this additional i think it can increase many number of Shp artist in PPM. and i'll be choice for people who want to make own shp but don't have money to buy 3ds max.
flyby tool is very good for setting camera angle and shadow it look very simple and easy to use.
