Dropbox StaffIntegrating Dropbox Paper with Dropbox
Paper is a Dropbox product, but what's the relationship between Paper and Dropbox itself? We're here to tell you! Here are the basics...
Can I access my Paper docs from Dropbox?
You can...
Besides account authentication, Paper essentially acts as a separate service from Dropbox. Ultimately this is why our team is moving away from Paper. I'd like to see it actually integrated with Dropbox. We lose docs in Paper all the time as the filing system is not great.
My thoughts exactly. Seems like Paper would be a great integration; but not if I can't get to it from my dropbox account. I'm migrating everything out of paper.

The integration is much tighter now with Paper 2020 paper docs live inside your dropbox folder and you can order them into subfolders etc. Finally it all makes sense : )
Where can we find this feature?

Hi Bill
I thought it was rolled out this year to all new paper users, but probably not then.
"Paper 2020 will allow you to continue to create, edit, and share Paper docs the same as you did before. We’re working hard to release Paper 2020 to all users in the near future."
When you do go onto it, your *new* paper docs will suddenly appear in the root of your DB folder, from where you can organise them at will.
lukeyo Paper 2020 isn't universal for all users, Dropbox in their wisdom, thought it would be better to rollout the upgrade to various users rather than a system wide upgrade. Dropbox even have allowed new customers access to te new software before existing customers. I just don't get their logic, and it certiainly isn't a customer first business model.
Agreed, for having a near bulletproof cloud storage solotuion that works so seamlessly with your desktop--just an incredible product, it's almost incomprehensible some of the seriously self-defeating policy decisions these people make.
