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

I love Dropbox Paper but I think it needs to be an intigrated part of Dropbox. As it stands right now you can't add Paper files to your dropbox folders, they live in their own section of dropbox. Being seperate makes things very inconvenient when I'm working on projects trying to look at my to-do list and try to access my files. To me Paper should be more like a viewing platform, similar to how Dropbox handles viewing a PDF.

I agree and can imagine 2 ways to make Paper much more powerful.
1. When saving photos and other documents to a Drop Box folder, automatically insert that link (and preview, if possible) into a single Paper document assigned to that folder. This would create a chronological "log book" that could be later annotated to explain the purpose of each file and to add a way to navigate that DropBox folder.
2. Conversely, if it was possible to work from within Paper as a kind of diary or journal and very easily create and edit Word, Excel, etc. documents embedded within Paper (and saved automatically to a linked DropBox folder), again, it would be a much more intuitive way to integrate DropBox folders with Paper documents.
