4 years agoHi meddycb! Welcome aboard the Community.
At the moment, there’s not a specific Dropbox feature, in order to transfer these files directly to Google Drive.
Since you mention that the format’s affected while downloading them, what I’d recommend is to use a third-party app, in order to move them directly to your Google Drive account.
Otherwise, you can also try syncing the files via the Dropbox desktop app, and then drag them out of your local Dropbox folder, instead of downloading them from our website.
If you need something else, I'm here for you.
