You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.
Hi
A number of us have started using dropbox paper at work. We want to save documents that we create in paper to an existing Team folder but I can't see how to do this. Any ideas anyone?
Just tried Paper first time today, pretty cool function and rather needed from a competitive view.
Rather quickly though, I realized that I would have wanted to have the Paper directly connected to a shared/specific folder, and preferably even as a "visible document" in that actual folder. Perhaps I missed something, because I couldn't find any way to connect the two. Paper seemed to have only it's own set of folders, separated from the original ones.
My humble two cents and a cup of tea.

Yup, lovely as it is, it's a complete waste of time for these two reasons:
1. If it's not syncing directly to part of my dropbox tree, I can't edit or use other tools to work with it.
2. Other tools are better at this kind of document editing. Dropbox has excelled at being a storage provider, but this platform completely ignores what *made* dropbox a success in the first place.
3. A proprietary storage space, and I suspect a proprietary document format, means another useless dead-end silo
4. If I can't round-trip documents elsewhere, you're treating me as a product, not a customer.
I can't get over Paper. The more you look at it, the less sense it makes.
