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?

Hi there,
I am quite new to Paper. My first instinct is to want to create a folder with the paper doc and files together. You know like a client project folder.
Do you get over this paper seperation or is it quite a limitation. Paper isn't in my workflow yet, so interested in other views. Thanks

It would be great to select a folder from Dropbox as the Paper "target" or starting folder, containing a hierarchy of TXT, .md etc files. I was under the assumption that this was already how Paper worked.... Current functionality is great, but lacking an import feature making it nearly impossible to switch over.

I was expecting to be able to save Paper Documents on Dropbox, where I have my whole archive. I see Paper as a very cool editor (I used to be a Google Docs/ Sheets user, but Paper is do much cooler!!).
So it only makes sense to link the notes editor with the filing system (archive).
To me it is a big let down if they won’t be linked soon

This thread had been going on for 3 years. How many more years or votes does it need before it's assigned to a Release?

That is a great question. I've been a fan (and user) of Dropbox for years and have been convincing business associates and clients to use it as well for projects we collaborate on. Fewer and fewer of them think it's the best platform for collaboration for this very reason. If my clients won't use it there is less and less reason for me to stay on the platform. I really hope Dropbox takes some action soon.

Looking at alternatives like iA Writer, I quickly found out that Dropbox discontinued their sync API making it near impossible for other developers to solve this problem... This should be addressed immediately. Thanks.

Would love to be able to intergrate Dropbox paper onto my finder in mac! Thanks for considering it.
