Cinema4D: Exporting a scene as a 2D Vector image

Question

Since geometry is simply math, is there a way to export what a camera sees in C4D to a file format such as EPS or SVG.

What the camera sees is simply points, you lose the depth and imagine the scene as a flat drawing, where perspective is simply plotted points on a canvas

Answer 1

So it seems that this question gets asked in various places, but is rarely answered. I managed to find the answer, and want to just do a quick write up on how to export as a 2D vector that you'll be able to open in Illustrator of Inkscape

Open Cinema 4D scene

File > Export > Illustrator

Turns out, it's very simple.

Note: You must enable Sketch an Toon in your render settings to display the lines
