Proton Docs Improvements
The ability to have a non-pageless design, a ruler, line spacing so it can be used for academic papers (think double space, 1.15, 1.5, etc...), ability to open PDFs in Proton Docs, word count, and the paint format feature. Also, please add the ability for the mobile versions of Proton Drive to edit Proton Docs in the app or a separate Proton Doc app. I love Proton Docs though it's amazing and the UI is beautiful.

Get rid of that ".protondoc" format or at least let us bulk download our .protondoc files as other formats. The ridiculous native format can only be used on the Proton Drive web app while connected to the internet - and also incapable of backing up onto a computer. Any documents you create in Proton Drive are trapped there. I discovered this last month after months of writing in Proton Drive, so I ended up needing to download everything to my computer - except there was no "bulk download as [different format]" option. So I had to go into over 70 files and individually export each as a different format. It took me hours! I was incredibly angry. Don't create documents in Proton Drive unless you don't care about offline access or being able to back them up.

Please can you make Proton Documents a Desktop App so that I can replace Notepad. I love Notepad but it does not sync between PC's. I would love to have stuff open on my notpad at work and then go home and have the same stuff there and it can sync via the Proton Cloud Drive. Also if the current web Documents page could use tabs for different 'pages' in a notebook that would be great!

I would love to switch from Zoho to Proton Docs (I am a Proton user), but need to be able to create docs in A4 size, and to have print view, word count etc

Nie ilmprovement would be to easily link a ProtonDoc to another, so that you can easily use ProdonDocs files as a wiki

Genuinely the inability to port my gdocs stuff and have it still be readable thanks to the mandatory double line spacing is the biggest thing keeping me from being able to switch off gdrive

A small but somewhat important suggestion I think is to be able to save/download files in .odt format for additional compatibility with LibreOffice.

Biggest thing for me is Page breaks as I need to print some documents out. Thank you!

I print my documents. Layout matters. Columns and page breaks would be enough to keep me out of Google Docs.

- ability to create multiple columns of text.
- editable page layout (portrait vs landscape)
- ruler features (including editable margins) -

It would also be nice to have some of this features:
-Embed Youtube Video
-Collapsible field
-Change default font and if possible had some other fonts
-When some text is formated as heading, to have them showing on the side, making it easy to navigate through the document. -

Docs is awesome and I am so happy to see it added! I would love to see the following improvements:
1. Dark theme support
2. More file type support like .odt files
3. Separate the document title from the main menu button
- single clicking the document title should start editing the title
- menu button could be movable with toggle lock
4. Open a document in the same tab as Proton Docs.
- The docs home button from a document should also go home on the same tab
5. PAGED option, pageless is nice but limited value
6. More font options
7. Ability to upload our own fonts
8. Copy/paste formatting -

Please add this! I so need this for formatting documents:
A non-pageless design (pages with page breaks)
A ruler
Ability to open PDFs in Proton Docs
Word count
I can't emphasize how much more I would use Proton Docs if it had just these four features!

Yes and the ability to add footnotes(integration with Zotero maybe?). That is essential for me as a university student.
