How can I save scanned documents into specific folders?

Hi there Reesalc, I hope you're having a good day so far!
Are you perhaps using the mobile app to scan your documents?
If so, you should be able to navigate within a specific folder before tapping the "+" icon and scanning a document. This will upload the file within the folder you were within.
Otherwise, after scanning the document there is an option to choose which location to save your scans to. After confirming your scanned image, you should see the option at the bottom of the next screen.
If you're scanning files differently, please let me know a brief step-by-step of the method you're using.
Let me know if this helps!

Daphne,
I have a laptop with a portable Epson scanner attached. I am using the Internet version of Dropbox, not an app.
