Adobe Integrations Overview
After Effects: .c4D files can be uploaded just like footage, Cinema 4D renders directly to an AEC file, and there is a Lite version of C4D integrated in Adobe After Effects CC.
Photoshop: .psd files can be used within C4D including layers, groups and transitions.
Illustrator: C4D 3D models can be loaded and edited directly within Adobe Illustrator CC 2017 using the new Cineware for Illustrator plug-in.
Cinema 4D Lite has been seamlessly integrated into Adobe After Effects CC since 2013. Cineware (the bridge between the two apps) allows you to load native Cinema 4D files into After Effects via drag / drop and provides complete control of 3D elements during the entire post-production process. https://helpx.adobe.com/after-effects/using/c4d.html#MaxonCINEMA4DLiteR19
