    While the "Import doc" feature on Paper home 🏠 has been temporarily disabled, you can still insert any file into Dropbox Paper. Please do let me know here in case you have any additional questions after having a look at resource I linked above & I’ll do my best to check back with you. Take care & happy 📝 editing until we talk again!

      Hi -

      I would also like to be able to import a Word document into Dropbox Paper. I often create a document in Word and then decide I want colleagues to collaborate on it, so I would want to import it to Paper (as Google Docs allows).

      Is this functionality available? If not, can you add that functionality?

      Many thanks.
