One month down in 2025: How are your resolutions coming along? Check out how to get back on track here.
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?
Coming from a Google Apps for Business environment, I'm used to create new documents within the folder structure.
I see that Dropbox allows me to create new Office files within a folder but not a new Paper doc. Is there a good reason why? I would like to have my team use Paper for notes, plans and other text-heavy documents instead of the bloated Word, but it's hard if the Paper option is perceived as less simple. Just the option to create a new Paper doc and place a link to that document in the Dropbox folder would do just fine.
1. Can I create a Paper doc (or link to a Paper doc) from within a Dropbox Folder?
2. If not, why?
3. What are best practices to work with Paper with a Dropbox folder structure?
I think the ability to integrate or link Dropbox Paper documents and Dropbox would be extremely valuable. While I udnerstand the "syncing" issue as the stumbling block, perhaps it would be possible to create a hyperlink or an allias (which would be link masquerading as a physical Paper document, ala Mac OS) that could be put in a dropbox folder and then when clicked the user would be taken to the dropbox paper document residing in(on) Dropbox Paper.
