Merge Multiple PDF Files Together.
Now that Dropbox has advanced editing features for PDFs. It would be super helpful to Select Multiple PDFs and merge them together. This will save time, and improve efficiency throughout my work day.

Master List of Tags with the ability to mass edit them
Hi! I decided to use Dropbox over its competitors because of their image tagging system which is very useful for my job. However I realized that there is not a master list of all the tags I have created over the last several months of using Dropbox and I have forgotten some of the tags that I created at the start of my project. I would like Dropbox to create a master list for all the tags that I have created, and it would be incredibly useful if there was a way to mass-edit a tag as well. As of now, you have to go into each image individually to delete or update a tag and it would be more helpful if there was an easier/less time consuming way to sort and organize. Thanks!

Compressing the size or adjusting the dimensions of a file automatically
I see many new features we can use or schedule, for automatic editing of picture, some of them advanced ... but the most important and basic one is missing: RESIZE. We are affected by the crazy Apple's idea to make the picture bigger and bigger, every year bigger... I think it will be very appreciated from everyone to have this edit option in dropbox together with the others. I did something good, and advanced as I mentioned, but this one is missing. 🙋‍♂️

Folder automation video conversion settings for proxy media
Hi, I would like to have adjustable video encoding settings within folder automation settings. For example, I would like to have the option to be able to convert a large 4K MP4 file with a 50kbps bitrate and large file size into a more manageable proxy file at 720p with a lower bitrate of 5kbps, or any combination of resolutions and bitrates.

The ability to add tags in the mobile app.
When can we have the ability to add tags on the mobile app? It's very difficult to always have to go to the desktop and use the website to add photo tags.

Use image EXIF for Dropbox tags and/or captions
Hello, is it possible for Dropbox to read EXIF in images? It would be great for images that require a caption along with tags. Also, it would be very very appreciated if third parties for Wordpress would be able to show these captions and tags with a simple code.

Mobile Dropbox app: handwriting/annotations (with pencil) for pdf, photos and drawing files
Do you want to use less paper and organise your handwritten annotations on digital files? In daily business, I need to review documents (pdf): highlighting, adding quick handwritten notes or adding symbols is very usefull. As a sailer, I make notes on weather charts(gif, png or jpeg), plot tidal calculations on a tidal template for a harbour (pdf). Or I need to draw secondary port calculations in a standard pdf template. As a musician, I make notes on a digital music sheet. There should be an option in the Dropbox app to add these annotations to the original document or to create a copy including the annotations (in the file name it adds your initials and a date). I know there is a feature to add signatures, but this proposal takes the next step! I think this would we a very useful add on for the mobile (tablet) Dropbox app. Thanks for sharing, commenting and voting 🙂 (just click vote after reading this) Bass&Art Bart

Easier editing of PDFs on mobile
It would be really useful if a couple of things were added to the editing of PDFs when using a mobile device. - For one, a simple way to add something like a tick or a cross would be really useful. - The ability to copy and paste any edits. - The ability to draw, like you can when editing on desktop.

Edit text file in browser
Hi, it would be *really* useful to be able to edit .txt (text) files in browser. There are several threads asking for this, and it's possible in the Dropbox apps on mobile. Please support light weight text editing in browser. I can sign, save, download, upload, etc. I just want to change one word in a file without doing that. Please help! I am often on a work computer and want to edit my files in dropbox, but only option is web interface, and that doesn't have an edit feature. Other similar posts that have unfortunately been closed: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-ideas/Edit-text-file-in-browser-window/idi-p/19795
