Is Dropbox Paper dead in the water?
Hi everyone,
I really like how Dropbox Paper works and I would love to move all my work from other alternatives to work only in Paper. But I'm a bit worried that Dropbox ignores Paper at this p...
Thanks for pointing this out! Paper is now my go-to word processor, largely because of its .md compatibility and flexible functionality.
Going forward, I would really appreciate an offline mode for the Windows desktop app. It's currently available on mobile, but not on Windows OR Mac. My impression is that's the highest priority feature for Paper users; me included!
I absolutely hear you. From my readings in other sections of the community, I believe a beta version is available with offline support for desktop OS. I have not been able to get my hands on it, so I cannot say for sure.
I do agree this is critical. Aside from there are small things I miss. Merging cells in tables, perhaps an automated table of contents creation feature. But not a lot more.
If I learn anything vélese I’ll be sure to come back and share.

I appreciate it! I'm considering a DB Plus subscription, but the lack of an offline .Paper editor for PC is keeping me back :(
As a DB Plus subscriber for years, I'd advise against it. I've waited nearly a year to be moved to the new paper release, the "2020" version, with no luck. Support just says they have no idea and no timeline. The more I use paper, the more unorganized dropbox becomes because the two do not integrate in the "old" version. With no end in sight, I'm moving on. What other company do you know of that releases an update and then has customers waiting months to a year just to move to that update? Why wouldn't their customer support be able to give a timeline on the integration for the rest of us? Nope, I wouldn't jump into a paid plan and invest in the dropbox ecosystem after this.
- I hear you. It’s mind boggling that having the new version operational and stable - I know because I’ve been fortunate to use it - they don’t make it available to everyone. I really cannot imagine why…
Not sure how committed are you to this topic. I would consider and open letter to the CEO.
I’ve met a PM from the Spaces area. If I can learn anything I’ll write back.
