Dropbox directory path bug

How to properly point to a root folder in Dropbox? There does not appear to be an option to insert a forward slash "/" preceding the directory name.

Any directory that is specified in the Dropbox directory designation sends the folder/file to the private Dropbox folder. In this case NASA SERVICES (see example). Need for PDFCreator to send the file to the root shared folder ZeroWaste. The proper path to point to that folder is:

"/home/ZeroWaste"

"home" is an internal system Dropbox folder.

If that directory path is specified an error message is posted:

An error occurred:
Error while uploading and sharing the document to Dropbox. (31202)

If the directory designation is specified as "home/ZeroWaste" a folder "home/Zerowaste" is created under the private NASA SERVICES folder.
