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?
I'd like to add on to this request. At work we have a brand folder that we use to house relevant documentation. I would like to be able to have Paper documents in this folder (i.e. Brand > Technical Documents > Imagery Requirements/Process Documentation/Et Cetera). It is important to us that these documents are visible within the "standard" Dropbox folder hierarchy, and not "hidden" within browser.

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

Hey HammerOz, thanks for posting your thoughts on the Community!
Although, there isn't currently an option to do this, I'd be more than happy to share your feedback with the dev team.
I've also moved your post to this thread where other users are expressing their interest in this feature.
Please don't hesitate to give us a nudge if you have any other ideas or questions, and we'll make sure to get back to you as soon as possible. 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.
