You can enter comments in a document and alert the appropriate person to address them with an You can make any content in your document visible to a specific collaborator by typing followed by their name. Dropbox Paper offers several powerful tools for working together more efficiently: Everyone you’ve invited will be notified and able to join Dropbox Paper beta and access the document.ĭepending on individual permissions, your collaborators will be able to add or delete text and/or add their feedback on a document. You have another chance to decide if each individual or group of collaborators can edit or just comment on the doc from the drop-down menu to the right. Once you’re done with these settings, enter the email addresses of your collaborators in the field at the top. To start collaborating on a document, set editing permissions and invite people via email. You can also set editing permissions for your invitees at this point, allowing anyone with the link to edit the document or only comment on it.
