You have to have an alpha channel to render one. If all the figures are on their own layer and the background is just a solid, then you can simply delete that layer (leaving the checkered background) and the alpha will render.
Otherwise, you need to create an extra channel in the channel palette that contains the outline in white of the figures.

Thanks Dave! I had never used Shift Channel before.
I wondered why using the photoshop movie as a track matte wouldn’t choke for me!

Criminy. I had not imported an image to the material. That’s how you can rework and map 2d artwork to a model in PSCS3.
However, what if I had only a shader/material in C4d and no imported images… I wonder if there is a way to make that show up as a layer?
So.. first question, answered.. which lead to the 2nd…thanks

yes, you’re right… export as 3ds

Well, there’s no shame in buying stuff first and then learning as well.
Have you visited https://www.digitaljuice.com/products/
You can preview backgrounds, swipes, elements etc and incorporating them is real easy.. you just import the quicktime as an asset, stick it on a layer and voila!

What version of InDesign are you using?
Is the application located on your hard drive or a network or external drive?
Try creating an archive of the file on the server and dragging that to your desktop and open it.
Does that work?

Sounds like you have InDesign, or else how are you making the pdf?
How about copy and paste?
Export from the pdf as text-plain then you can style as needed.
