Figured this out. Dropbox migrated all the old paper documents to a dropbox folder called "Migrated Paper Docs" and gave everything the extension ".paper"

So, you can search ".paper" and everything will come up.

So find this "Migrated Paper Docs" folder, go here:
https://www.dropbox.com/home

Look thru the left side for a folder called "Migrated Paper Docs". They're all in there now!
https://www.dropbox.com/home/Migrated%20Paper%20Docs?di=left_nav_browse

HOPE THIS HELPS YOU!
