Dropbox Paper preview shows an option to open it via another tab, and it doesn't preview
Is there an option to preview Dropbox Paper files?
Just like it happens with .pdf .doc ...
Now it only shows the option to open it on another tab.

It sounds like you're referring to the three device limit for Basic accounts documented here.
That limit applies to the devices that can be connected to the Dropbox product itself, via official Dropbox applications, such as the official Dropbox desktop client or mobile applications.
This limit does not apply to third party apps that to connect to Dropbox via the Dropbox API. Users of third party API apps can connect them to the Dropbox API from as many instances/devices as they want.
Hope this helps!
Hi Francis-sollutia, currently, it isn't possible to preview Paper docs in the quick preview window.
In order to view them, you would need to open them directly.

Ok, thanks. I'll post it as an idea for a feature 😉
