This is my code add a Rectangle to PDEElement:

AVRect rect;

PDEElementGetBBox (pdeElement, &bbox);

AVPageViewRectToDevice (pageView, &bbox, &rect);

sprintf(jsScript, "var a = this.addAnnot({page:%d,type:'Square'}); a.name='%s';a.rect=[%d,%d,%d,%d]; ",i,"P"+j, rect.left ,rect.top , rect.right, rect.bottom); AFExecuteThisScript (myPDDoc , jsScript, NULL);

Position of Rectangle in Result not correct.

How can get coordinates of PDEElement?

Correct answer lrosenth

Why are you converting to device rects. Skip that step and you should be fine.

BUT if you are already using the C++ APIs, why switch to JavaScript? Why not do all this using PD calls such as PDPageAddAnnot?

I'm sorry, I had try this code and it add ok, but not exist color, so i can't see rectangle.

PDAnnot annot;

//Create a PDAnnot object

annot = PDPageCreateAnnot (pdPage, ASAtomFromString("Square"),&bbox);

PDPageAddAnnot(pdPage,-2, annot);
