Can't create a paper file from dropbox.com
Hi all,
I'm an happy user of dropbox paper but I still can't create paper files from within my dropbox.com web space.
Do any of you have the same problem?
As a workaround I currently create new paper docs by copying existing projects. This approach works but I still need to delete / substitute all the content imported from the original file.
Help would be appreciated 🙂
Thanks!

Hi again, wingrunner! I checked all the info you’ve sent us so far, and it looks like your Dropbox account hasn’t been upgraded so far to the latest release of Dropbox Paper (which explains why you’re only able to create new Paper docs via the Paper Home page, and not www.dropbox.com).
The new release of Dropbox Paper will gradually roll out to all Dropbox customers, until everyone is updated to the new version. You should get an email from Dropbox that lets you know when you’ll be getting the release.

Hi there wingrunner - sorry to hear you're having issues with this.
Could you please clear your browser's cache and/or try another browser, preferably with no extensions or plugins running, and let me know if the issue persists?
If it does, please send us a screenshot of the error or the last screen you can get too as well.
Thanks!
- wingrunnerHelpful | Level 5Ciao Walter, the cache clearing and a browser change did not solve the issue. The situation remain the same as the screenshot shown above.

Hi wingrunner, are you able to access the Dropbox Paper site from this page in order to create new docs?
