Saving Paper docs to existing Dropbox folder structure/file-system.

I, like many, can't get over how ridiculously complicated it is to have two sets of files to share, and at that, for Paper not to be synced with desktop. (Even worse, not to find much help on this topic posted by Dbox seems unforgivable.):slight_frown:

Suggestion to Dropbox re: Paper docs.

Why don't you create something akin to an alias document which will automatically link to the Paper directory on the server. I'm not a programmer or geek but can only imagine that Paper docs have to stay in a central location on the Dbox server in order to utilize the collaboration and on-the-fly formatting tools. With an alias, at least you'll know that you've got a relevant document in the team's Paper directory. The alias doesn't even have to be a functional viewable file but only a virtual link to the stored file. Understandably you couldn't access it if you didn't have a connection.

But at least it'd be there in your cloud Dbox and desktop Dbox as a virtual file serving as an alias which youi could then directly access. Even better, let the alias show the last time the file was modified, or maybe make that Paper version a non-printable view only version of the latest version. Or maybe if printable, a watermark noting that it's one imprint of a dynamic document. ) But, as is, as "fun" as it is to learn the novel bells and whistles and get others to collaborate in Paper, it's a giant PITA. (As is the folder and file system display.) (as is discovering how to re-invite someone) ( as is noting that a team member is in fact already viewing the team folder but still being indicated as not having responded to the invitaiton)
